xpdf navigation using h,j,k,l

Question

man xpdf says the following:

Previous versions of xpdf included a "viKeys" X resource. It is no longer available, but the following bindings are equivalent:

bind h any scrollLeft(16) bind l any scrollRight(16) bind k any scrollUp(16) bind j any scrollDown(16)

But I am unable to use those keys for navigation. Do they work? Any special configuration required from my side?

Answer 1

Well, I figured that out. Go edit /etc/xpdf/xpdfrc and add the following

bind h any scrollLeft(16)
bind l any scrollRight(16)
bind k any scrollUp(16)
bind j any scrollDown(16)

Now, I have the desired behavior.
