Description Sebastien Bacher 2006-05-28 16:26:45 UTC 
That bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/44672

"When I set Zoom to 100% for an A4 document, it actually appears very small, much smaller than an actual A4 on my screen.

I need to Zoom to ~150% to get accurate representation of an A4 on screen.

Can't GNOME's DPI settings be used to calculate the actual zoom?
...
> Thanks for your bug. What version of Ubuntu do you use? Did you try the "Best Fit" zoom option? What does "100%" means to you?
...
100% means to me 100% in the 'real' world. So if I have a A4 sized PDF, and I display it at 100% in Evince and a put a physical A4 over my screen, I want it to match.

I'm using Dapper Beta."
