filename(s)...
Specifies the file to open when Evince starts. If this is not
specified, Evince will open a blank window. Multiple files can
be loaded if they are separated by spaces. Evince also supports
handling of remote files. For example, you can pass the loca-
tion on the web or load a file from a FTP server, like
"ftp://adobe.com/sample.pdf".

These options are primarily intended for use with the GTK+ print pre-
view function. For more information about these options see http://de-
