Bug Description

Binary package hint: evince

Open up any PDF.

Firstly, the keyboard shortcuts disagree with the menu. Ctrl+- and Ctrl++ are meant to zoom out and in, respectively, according to the menu. However, you can scroll out and in using just "-" or "+" without Ctrl.

A consequence of not needing the Ctrl to zoom is that if you type "-" or "+" into the Find bar, the characters will not appear in the Find bar, and the document will incorrectly zoom instead. (Strangely, if you press "+" OR "-" repeatedly, one character might appear in the Find bar, but most of the keypresses will zoom.)
