DESCRIPTION

       evince

       Evince is a document viewer capable of displaying multiple and single page document formats like PDF  and
       Postscript.     For   more   general   information   about   Evince   please   visit   our   website   at
       https://apps.gnome.org/Evince/

OPTIONS

       -?, -h, --help
              Prints the command line options.

       -p, --page-label=PAGE
              Open the document on the page with the specified page label (or page number).

       -i, --page-index=NUMBER
              Open the document on the page with the specified page index (this is the exact page number, not  a
              page label).

       -n, --named-dest=DEST
              Open the document on the specified named destination.

       -f, --fullscreen
              Run evince in fullscreen mode.

       -s, --presentation
              Run evince in presentation mode.

       -l, --find=string
              You  can  pass a word or phrase here. If it exists, evince will display the document and the first
              match.

       filename(s)... OR uri(s)...
              Specifies the file to open when Evince starts. If this is not specified, Evince will open with the
              Recent Files view. Multiple files can be loaded if they are  separated  by  spaces.   Evince  also
              supports  handling  of  remote files.  For example, you can pass the location on the web or load a
              file from a FTP server,  like  "ftp://adobe.com/sample.pdf".  File  uri's  are  also  allowed  eg.
              "file:///home/user/Documents/sample.pdf"

              We  partially  support  the  Adobe  PDF  open  parameters, specifically the "page" and "nameddest"
              parameters, which are similar to our --named-dest  and  --page-label  options  respectively.  Some
              examples below:
                - file:///home/user/Documents/sample.pdf#page=12
                - https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.01425#nameddest=section.3
                - sample.pdf#Page=5
                - sample.pdf#NamedDest=Chapter4

                Tip: you can obtain the list of all named destinations in a pdf file
                     with the "pdfinfo -dests" command of poppler-utils package.

              Evince also treats a numeric solely parameter as the "page" number, eg:
                - sample.pdf#5
                - https://arxiv.org/pdf/2310.01425#7

Print preview options

       These  options  are primarily intended for use with the GTK+ print preview function. For more information
       about these options see https://docs.gtk.org/gtk3/property.Settings.gtk-print-preview-command.html

       -w, --preview
              Run evince as a previewer.

       --unlink-temp-file
              If evince is run in preview mode, this will unlink the temporary file created by GTK+.

       --print-settings %s %f
              This sends the full path of the PDF file, f, and the settings of the print dialog, s, to evince.
