Hi!
For some time I used doc-view for reading PDFs and reading
documentation (like the emacs-intro.pdf). But when I have the document
on a reasonable, readable zoom level and scroll through page by page
reading it I have this workflow at the moment:
- read page
- scroll down a few times to get the last lines, too
- press PgDown to get to the new page
- scroll up to the top of the page to keep going on reading it
The last part (scrolling up again) is an annoyance when enjoying an
otherwise good read. I made a IMHO pathetic patch like this:

I know this is evil especially with the search and all but I would
love if anyone would recommend a better way to fix this.

You should change your workflow. ;-)
Simply use SPC and DEL for scrolling up and down. These commands will
switch to the top of the next/bottom of the previous page when
appropriately.
