I think evince needs some sort of scrolled thingy here. I tried putting the GtkTable into a GtkScrolledWindow, but that doesn't work since the GtkTable isn't a scrollable widget. So I tried a GtkScrolledWindow containing a viewport containing the GtkTable. But the viewport would have to be explicitly sized... What about a GtkTextView (inside a scrolled window) instead of the Table: each property/value would be a text paragraph and the paragraphs would have "hanging indentation"; you'd probably need one tab stop (the same width as the indentation), too.
