The appearance of the previews isn't very refined, and doesn't encourage someone to use Documents. The main issues that I can see are:

 * hard black stroke around the pages
 * odd solid "shadow" showing on the right
 * insufficient padding between the top page and the toolbar
 * insufficient padding between pages

Here's a mockup for something better:

I'm sure someone else could do better, but this still seems like an improvement.

This depends on Evince bug 653294
Comment 4 Cosimo Cecchi 2012-12-23 13:18:27 UTC 
This is now implemented for Documents as well.
