Just to give you an example: When talking about evince, it is important to check which rendering libraries are used. I have documents that render correctly on my debian box with at least one of the available evince packages (linked to poppler 0.6.4), but not on Red Hat Fedora 8 (linked to poppler-0.6.2), where some fonts are shown with "?". While writing documents, I tend to use either apparition, which is fast (as long as it is running on the local machine -- it can be very slow over a network), or Emacs DocView just makes a png image of each page -- often enough to make sure some TeX fragment is working properly. -- George N.
