Took the day off today.... but spent most of it working..... #sigh... but multitasking let me do lots of things. May go hit a squash ball with a mate a little later. The some fish and chips takeaways from a great little hole in the wall place I found in Darrenwood.

Why in the world does Evince (the default PDF viewer on Ubuntu) not have a fullscreen mode that does away with the obnoxious client-side titlebar to let you actually maximize viewable area?

Yes, I know it hides the titlebar in "presentation mode", but it then also disables any zoom other than "full page", so that's just differently obnoxious.

edit: Atril appears to get the job done.
