Ubuntu 20.04 - Document Viewer / evince

Hi,

I was reading a PDF downloaded from WikiPedia (about the "Executable and
Linkable Format"). I wanted to have two windows open with the same document
in - one for the initial diagrams and one for the bit I was concentrating
on.

Sadly, evince checks to see if the file you give it is already open and
jumps to that window. Fine but... I'd like 2 or more windows for some PDF
files.

Any idea how to get around it? I've tried running evince from the command
line but to no avail.

TIA,


Ian
