EVINCE\Gnome Developers have been adding the most useless features to evince, constantly pushing PDF annotations to the next release. EVINCE in GNOME 3 (Evince 3.2 in Debian Wheezy) STILL does not include it.
They added the "Wonderful" feature "Inverted color". The least of features in EVINCE includes Document Printing[1] [Duh???]
Adobe reader can edit notes and so does KDE's Okular.
If there is one feature that needs to put Atril on the Academic's Table this is it!
So, please, please, please, give the world a Free PDF reader which can enhance collaboration and help us work better with out the need to install all KDE dependencies and or non free apps like Acrobat.

Thanks in advance,
Oz

P.S.
I would have done it my self if I knew how. However, I'm doing baby steps in C, and I hope to get into GTK programming in the next year.
