I just installed Ubuntu for the first time and I'm getting used to using it. I'm playing around with PDF documents. I have problems with rotation of pages using default document browser Evince document viewer.
I got two files:
First 'original.pdf'
file with wrongly rotated pages.
Second. 'modified.pdf'
file with pages rotation corrected by me.
I deleted orginal.pdf
and renamed modified.pdf
-> original.pdf
.
Before I renamed modified.pdf
,page rotation was good. When I renamed it to original.pdf
pages are being rotated wrongly. All this thing for the same file I'm only renaming it. I can cancel 'wrong rotation' by renaming 'original.pdf'
to any other name. Quite strange... Of course if I open the original.pdf
file with another browser pages are rotated properly.
My guess is that Evince document viewer remember rotation setting from time when I was playing with original.pdf
file and is applying this rotation rules to any file named orignal.pdf
even if I delete the file and rename another file to original.pdf
. Sth like rule rotate pages in orignal.pdf
always by 90 degree clockwise`.
Is my guess about this rotation is good? Is there a way to delete this history of rotation or deactivate it completely? I would like to see always files as they are, keep it real.
Thank you in advance for help!
