Evince FAQ

Questions & Answers

  • I'd like to suggest a feature. Would it be possible to have a command
    line option to open a file in a specific page number (absolute based,
    not label based)?

    If somebody guides me on what to do I'll be happy to implement the
    feature.

  • The functionality implemented on Evince is the one you mention on your
    message. I checked with this document

    http://ptgmedia.pearsoncmg.com/images/0131473816/downloads/0131473816_book.pdf

    $ evince -p xxvi 0131473816_book.pdf shows page xxvi, number 26 in
    absolute values.

    So, if you have a problem with this option, open a bug on bugzilla, to
    check if there is a bug on the Evince code or if the pdf is bad formed.

    Thanks for your interest on improving Evince !!!,
