** Description changed:
- I am opening a pdf whose page size is of about 2 meters by 1.7 meters,
- and Evince doesn't let me zoom in to more that 46%.
+ 1) lsb_release -rd
+ Description: Ubuntu Vivid Vervet (development branch)
+ Release: 15.04
- The maximum allowed zoom in should be a fixed percentage, not a fixed
- total size. There's no need to render the whole document to display only
- the visible part, and a lot of other programs can handle that same
- document and view it at any arbitrary zoom, so this limit is simply
- ridiculous.
+ 2) apt-cache policy evince libcairo2 libpoppler[0-9]

+
+ 3) What is expected to happen opening
+ https://launchpadlibrarian.net/193598539/output.pdf in Evince is one may
+ zoom in to at least the expected 400%.
+
+ 4) What happens instead is one may only zoom in to ~28%.
+
+ WORKAROUND: Use Firefox's built-in PDF viewer:
+ apt-cache policy firefox
