I don't know evince.  Is it based on Derek's xpdf library?

Though I usually prefer free software, my preferred PDF viewer is
still Adobe Reader.  Is there any program except Adobe Reader or
Acrobat which can display microtype.pdf or movie15.pdf properly?

Maybe you don't know what you are missing unless you tried a program
which supports layers, 3D, JavaScript, and so on.

Derek will certainly never support all this.  But there is a new
project called "GNU PDF".

   http://gnupdf.org

It's quite promising and I hope that they find enough qualified
volunteers.

Regards,
  Reinhard

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
