The per-file settings are stored as GVFS metadata. You can view them with `gio info file.pdf`. You can delete the settings with for example `gio set -t unset file.pdf metadata::evince::page`. I don't think there's a simple way to unset them all at once, but you could unset any that look problematic or create a script that unsets each one. _______________________________________________ evince-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evince-list
