Regrettably, epdfview is dead. The best option is to switch to evince or zathura, following:

I switched to zathura, and all pdf's render.

I just yum installed zathura in F-18/64/XFCE. It appears to run but displays a blank form with only [No name] at the bottom left.
[bobg@box10 ~]$ zathura /mnt/HOME1/Documents/Toro/3375-638.pdf error: could not open plugin directory: /usr/lib64/zathura error: unknown file type
Perhaps it wont work with XFCE?

It's sort of "mispackaged". You need to install the zathura-pdf-poppler package, too. The zathura package description mentions that "plugins" are used, but is describes Zathura as PDF viewer although by default it cannot displays PDF, because the pdf-poppler plugin is not installed.
Description : Zathura is a highly configurable and functional PDF viewer based on the Poppler rendering library and the GTK+ toolkit. The idea behind zathura is an application that provides a minimalist and space saving interface as well as an easy usage that mainly focuses on keyboard interaction.
Zathura uses plugins to open different file formats, for instance: * zathura-pdf-poppler to open PDF files, * zathura-ps to open PostScript files, * zathura-djvu to open DjVu files. All of these are available in Fedora.

I also found configuration confusing earlier, but the following helped me get there (as per my notes on my zathurarc in my $HOME/.config/zathura/zathurarc
# http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/oneiric/man5/zathurarc.5.html # # see also http://pwmt.org/projects/zathura/configuration/ # and http://pwmt.org/projects/zathura/options/ # as well as http://pwmt.org/projects/girara/options/
Example: set window-height 1150 set window-width 887 set adjust-open width
map <Home> goto top map <End> goto bottom map <PageUp> scroll full-up map <PageDown> scroll full-down map <BackSpace> scroll full-up map r rotate rotate-cw map c rotate rotate-ccw
--=
One thing I was not able to find is how to get a NextPage key-binding using the PageDown which does not also impact the Spacebar (which by default only pages down the screen, which I would like to keep).
HTH, Ranjan

Good, I installed the three plug-ins and it now displays the pdf file I was testing with.
I put it into "full screen" and it took a while to find that could be undone with F5 ...
I'm not sure it's any better than evince but I saw it mentioned and wanted to try it. I will try the commands Ranjan suggests.
Thanks,
Bob

Any chance 2.3.1 will come to F18?
