This may be an Ubuntu kernel problem. I have upgraded my kernel from 5.15.0.37.39 to 5.15.1-051501.202111061036 without changing anything else, and the mentioned problem with Evince has gone away.
But this problem resurfaces after changing back to the previous kernel 5.15.0.37.39 from grub during boot. So, some changes from kernel 5.15.0.37.39 to 5.15.1-051501.202111061036 solve this problem. Can anybody confirm this? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1969896 Title: Evince Document Viewer(42.0) does not remember last page in 22.04 and opens in a tiny window when launched Status in evince package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Just switched from Ubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 and realized that Document Viewer no longer open on the last viewed page and doesn't remember the side pane preference even after using the "Save Current Settings as Default" option.
