I don't use evince, don't know what 'link view' is and don't know what 
I'm doing.
I had thought the sizing may be defined in the window manager/ desktop 
environment.
If I open evince and click 'help' a blank window is opened, perhaps 
because I haven't installed some help file.
There is a message which refers to sizes, perhaps that is helpful?
