Will Evince ever support CHM files as well? I'm somewhat against having to install FBReader just for that.

I think this thread should be renamed "I really love Evince".

I changed it, but it only shows up inside of the thread, not on the forumdisplay. A mod/admin needs to edit it (just double click from forumdisplay) or the admin could update counters in the maintenance area of the vB admin panel. It's a bug.
Feel free to make a new dedicated thread of your own, Ed_. That would probably be easier, as you could always edit the first post with relevant info if you felt like it, for forum searchers.

Main reason i've come across this issue is that I needed to search for material within those textbooks and have realized that the thumbnails i used for scanning pages took quite a while to load. Long enough to make it kinda useless.
Can you provide example PDF file where I can see this?
Adding feature request or bug, if you wish, to the garage tracker (https://garage.maemo.org/tracker/?group_id=547) would also help to get this issue resolved.
Thank you.
I'm sure the effect would be similar if you tried a PDF somewhere around that many pages.
If i come across something similar I'll let you know.
Thanks,
Sai

You can see details about .chm support in 'Possible or planned to support' section of this document http://live.gnome.org/Evince/SupportedDocumentFormats on the main Evince site.

btw if thumnails or index sidebar is off. it loads fine one page at a time. just as fast as the original pdf reader.

Is there anyway to have it set the default directory for open files? So when I click open, it always opens in a directory of my choosing?

Thank you.
