Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evince
Hi,
This bug seems like a simple and easily reproducible bug. I am
developing a software using wxWidgets and its 2000+ page PDF document
works fine with evince.
However, once I have closed evince, opening evince again to view this
pdf crashes it almost instantly.
Two things that may be of help:
1. One way to solve this (temporarily) is to press the 'Home' button as soon as
the pdf is opened. This may be a hint as to how to resolve this. (Please note
that I generally have to sit with both my hands occupied when re-opening the
pdf, one on the enter button to start the application and the second on the
home page which needs to be pressed immediately !!).
2. The issues seems that while re-opening the document, the evince
somehow is unable to render the previous visited page number (for e.g.
the 2000th page or something) before the viewing takes place...
Note: The large document that I talk about is the official wxWidgets PDF
document (about 2300+ pages) available from the wxWidgets home page.
Hope it helps.
