    <title>Introduction to ePDFView-gtk3</title>

    <para>
      <application>ePDFView-gtk3</application> is a fork of the old
      <application>ePDFView</application> program. Although the github repository
      <ulink url="https://github.com/Flow-It/epdfview_old.git"/>  names it as
      'old', it is the gtk3 fork. It is a lightweight replacement for
      <application>Evince</application> as it does not rely upon
      <application>GNOME</application> libraries and is more capable than
      <application>MuPDF</application>.

        ePDFView-gtk3 has several keyboard hotkeys for optional features. Most
        of them are 'off' by default, including the toolbar, and if it has been
        closed with the menu disabled, the program can start with all options
        not being visible until the relevant function keys are pressed.
