Hi, I'm afraid we don't have any written docs like that. If I had to do 
another activity that used the evince python bindings, I would first 
read Read's code and then see if the existing bindings in evince.def are 
enough. You can find some apidocs about that in the evince C sources. If 
you need to add bindings, see how evince.defs is done and send patches.

Also, note that we are shipping a forked package of evince containing a 
few patches to evince itself, some work to put the evince code in a 
shared lib, plus the python bindings themselves. All this should be 
upstreamable, but nobody has found the time yet. If someone wanted to do 
such contribution, would be very welcome.

Regards,

Tomeu
