Title:
  evince: 'Open a copy'  ignores saved settings

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  1.) I open a PDF document.
  2.) I set my preferred view mode for it.
  3.) I click on "Save current settings as default"
  4.) I open a copy of the document (by clicking on the "Open a Copy" item).

  5.) The copy is opened. Unfortunately, my preferred and saved setting
  have been ignored by evince and the document is displayed in a default
  (for me a quite odd) way.

  Some details: my preferred display regime is to utilise the PRECIOUS
  VERTICAL SPACE as much effectively as possible for the document
  CONTENT. I.e.:

  I turn off all toolbars. Only the bar with "File", "Edit", etc is shown.
  I use the "Best Fit" mode.
  I turn OFF the "Continuous" mode. 
  In additions I turn off also the side bar. 
  In 90% of situations I do not need sidebar and I always prefer keyboard over mouse.
