I didn't have it installed, but installed it to try now.  Annoyingly,
it only appears as "document viewer" (rather than "Evince document
viewer") in the right-click list of open-with options, or Mate menus.  

Apart from being the height of conceit, it makes it hard to do exactly
what you want to do unless you use the command line.  I've edited my
Mate menus to fix that stupidity, but haven't delved into finding out
how existing things in the right-click menus can be adjusted (yet).


tim@fluffy:~$ evince --version
GNOME Document Viewer 48.0

Doesn't happen here.  Working fine.  And I messed around with viewing
options quite a bit.

I'm also using X, not Wayland.  Using motherboard Intel graphics:

tim@fluffy:~$ lspci |grep -i graphics
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation HD Graphics 630 (rev 04)
