Description Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2006-10-15 01:41:04 UTC 
currently if you open a document with evince that is already open then the document will be brought to the front.

this, unfortunately, sucks if you've since changed the document.

either evince should have a "force reload" commandline switch or it should stat() the file to see if it has changed and then force a reload.
