evince document states


In what file does the evince (PDF viewer) record its document states? It is thoroughly messed up for one of my documents and it would be easiest to just discard all the states for all documents.

I didn't find that, but I did find ~/.recently-used.xbel and it did have the troublesome file listed in it. There isn't enough data in there to hold the messed up index state. OTOH, I edited it and removed that part, and the file is sane again. Hmmm.
