Bug Description

Binary package hint: evince

Often best view of document appears to be for example 250% In this case 300% will be unusable and 200% will be too small.
The ideal solution would be to allow custom scaling (like kpdf do)

I can try :)

Kpdf allows to enter new scale manually, it may be any number (like 114% or 297%)
Limiting user to only 10 scales is not very good idea (currently 50,70,85,100,125,150,175,200,300,400%)
