Question Evince not seen in Aplications


I have Evince installed, as can be seen in Synaptic but can't see it in Applications, nor can invoke it as an option to open files. Initially I had Evince working, but changed to Okular. Since then, I did not see Evince in my Netbook. I want to have the Evince option. I installed Evince related packages from the Ubuntu 10.04 Repository, but nothing new appears in Applications or System. Please advice. Thank you

Go to System > Preferences > Main Menu. This will open a GUI where you can find Evince (sometimes called Document Viewer) in the Graphics menu. Tick the appropriate box and then close the GUI down. Now check Applications > Graphics > Document Viewer or Evince.
