[Bug 1330226] Re: document viewer has a ridiculous limit for zoomin which depends on the document size

 

Yes, it obviously still is an issue. It hasn't been fixed and all is the
same.

ANY document with a paper size equal to or bigger than the dimensions I
mentioned will reproduce the issue. (sorry I don't have one ready that I
can share, it should be trivial to generate one). The issue should be
easy to spot in the source code without even reproducing it, btw.

Title:
  document viewer has a ridiculous limit for zoomin which depends on the
  document size

Status in evince package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  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%.

  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.
