Hi Moritz,

Thanks for the suggestion.

| Try epdfview, then.

Did.  Unfortunately, it was too slow to use remotely.
When the top 2/3 of a page was displayed, for example,
I hit the space bar to see the bottom 1/3 of the page.
It took 5-10 seconds before the rendering was complete.
In the same environment, xpdf takes less than a second.

Evince was as slow as epdfview.

epdfview is an excellent viewer if used
on a local machine.

| xpdf is a dead end.

I'm sorry to hear that.  (No, it's not possible
for me to take care of the package, unfortunately.)

Regards,
Ryo
