evince Evince 2.30.3 command line invocation



I just upgraded from 2.28.1 to 2.30.3, in Windows. I use evince in Windows for, among other things, viewing PDFs created with pdflatex, and I like to use Textpad (a text editor) as a Latex IDE, and launch evince from Textpad as a viewer for the PDF (Textpad also runs pdflatex against the source .tex file, which is how the pdf gets there).

Previously, I just did this by configuring a menu command in Textpad to launch evince.exe with parameters to load the newly-created pdf file. Worked just fine, except that ver. 2.28 had no print capability, so I had to run Acroread when I wanted to print.

Version 2.30 of evince in Windows now can print. So far, so good.

However, with this version there is no evince.exe program file to be found. Instead, I find evince.lnk (a Windows shortcut), which leads deep into the bowels of Windows to launch some numbered object with a list of parameters I cannot fathom. So I can't launch it from Textpad.

Question - how, now, to launch evince and load a specifed PDF, from a command line or the like?

Thanks.
