How to set Night Mode as defaut for all documents? And Dark Mode as default for Evince’s interface?

Using:

  • Evince 45
  • GNOME 43.9
  • Debian 12 Bookworm

Found it. For those interested in an automated Night mode for Evince (Document Viewer). The latest version of Evince has better support for Night Mode/Dark Mode at https://flathub.org/apps/org.gnome.Evince

Steps, screenshots, and details are in my comment at https://www.reddit.com/r/linux4noobs/comments/12jptzb/comment/kvxim2s/

I tried to publish the steps here in discourse.gnome.org but discourse did not allow. My account is too new.

In fairness, it is not best approach for night mode but it is something. See [Feature request] Night mode turn white background into dark grey instead of black (#1501) · Issues · GNOME / evince · GitLab.
