As it is, the program is useless. xpdf, evince, acroread, mupdf and foxitreader are all drastically better than either of the zathuras. I expect I must have something on my system which is misconfigured that somehow manages to affect zathura but not the other poppler-based readers. (And when I installed mupdf, getting the mupdf renderer, it did not improve.) I am running S64-14.2. The only "peculiarity" I can immediately think on a hi-DPI system (163 DPI) (I know some software is just plain broken when the DPI is not close to 96, but I am grasping at straws here). Can anyone else comment on what they see with either the default zathura or B Watson's? Thanks.
