Is my guess about this rotation is good? Is there a way to delete this history of rotation or deactivate it completely? I would like to see always files as they are, keep it real.Ĭongrats on starting your adventure with Ubuntu. Sth like rule rotate pages in orignal.pdf always by 90 degree clockwise`. My guess is that Evince document viewer remember rotation setting from time when I was playing with original.pdf file and is applying this rotation rules to any file named orignal.pdf even if I delete the file and rename another file to original.pdf. Of course if I open the original.pdf file with another browser pages are rotated properly. I can cancel 'wrong rotation' by renaming 'original.pdf' to any other name. All this thing for the same file I'm only renaming it. When I renamed it to original.pdf pages are being rotated wrongly. I deleted orginal.pdf and renamed modified.pdf -> original.pdf.īefore I renamed modified.pdf ,page rotation was good.

'modified.pdf' file with pages rotation corrected by me. I have problems with rotation of pages using default document browser Evince document viewer.įirst 'original.pdf' file with wrongly rotated pages.

Vii) have you tried to launch evince as root - is it opening? evince test.pdf), this might avoid a recent document failure Vi) instead of launching evince from terminal as: evince, launch it by opening a specific file (e.g.

There might be a file that caused that issue. Actually, if you open evince from terminal, what you will see is all the recent files evince has opened. If you do not care for your desktop to run high for a minute or so, the problem might get fixed, since as you have mentioned, you are not getting any messages while evince is launched (especially if your system has low cpu and/or memory). Iii)change your theme, yet, if it was theme related you should have observed some messagesĮDIT v) maybe you have tried it yet, close all programs and try to launch evince->sometimes if a new configuration is taking place or something was closed unexpectedly, cpu usage increases a lot. I)try ubuntu from usb and if it is working, try to update every package and check again My system has been cleanly installed and evince was still working a few days ago.then if it is system related, if you load a usb stick at the same computer, launch evince and still does not work, then I guess that either an update caused the issue or it is graphics card related.
