Title:
  evince should use subpixel antialiasing for documents if the gconf key
  /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/antialiasing is set to "rgba"

Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: evince

  Evince always applies grayscale font smoothing to displayed documents.
  It should be able to provide subpixel antialiasing to match the
  appearance of the surrounding GNOME desktop too, if set so in gnome-
  appearance-properties.

  Steps to reproduce:

  1. Set font smoothing to "Subpixel (LCDs)"

  2. Open a PDF document with evince

  3. Compare how menu fonts and document fonts are displayed.

  
  Actual results:

  Grayscale antialiasing for document fonts, subpixel antialiasing for
  menu fonts.

  
  Expected results:

  Both menu and document fonts are rendered using subpixel antialiasing.

  
  It may be a pure backend issue, please move then to poppler or something more 
appropriate.

  Hardly possible that this bug has not been reported before, but I've
  failed to find the original report.

  Hardy Heron, evince 2.22.2-0ubuntu1
