Description of problem: Got a PDF that will not zoom in Document Viewer more than 75.94%. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): evince-3.20.0-1.fc24.x86_64 How reproducible: Always with this particular PDF Steps to Reproduce: 1. Click on the zoom field button, choose 50%, I get 50% zoom. Choose 85% and I get 75.95%. Choose 100% and I get 75.95%. Type in 150 and hit return, and it snaps back to 75.94%. 2. 3. Actual results: Always 75.94% zoom. Expected results: Arbitrary zoom should be possible. Additional info: http://aeronav.faa.gov/content/aeronav/sectional_files/PDFs/Cheyenne_93_P.pdf When I download TIFF versions of the same charts from here: https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/flight_info/aeronav/digital_products/vfr/ And then print them to a PDF, I get a different max zoom value of 104.76% No matter what I type in or choose, it won't zoom more than 104.76%. So different PDFs have different max zooms, but it should be possible to zoom into these PDFs a lot more than this. OK got a pretty basic PDF I'll attach to the bug, it's just this window printed to a PDF file from Firefox. And I choose 400% and it pins itself to 390.01% max. I can't zoom in more than that. 400% is one of the preset zoom sizes (which is weirdly different for every PDF), but it won't accept 400%, it snaps to 390.01%.

Hi Chris, the maximal zoom is constrained by page cache size so by setting higher value you should be able to get higher zoom: gsettings set org.gnome.Evince page-cache-size 200 Regards Marek
So you're saying that, by design, intentionally, Evince cannot do a 100% zoom out of the box, which is something every other PDF viewer I've used can do on this same document, and as a result, can't properly display a significant number of PDFs? How in the world am I to take "notabug" seriously? If it's not a bug, it's bad design.
