SUMMARY

a single PDF can only be viewed one page at a time forcing one to scroll
between different parts of the document.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open pdf in okular
2. find a table on one page
3. find the text describing it on another page
4. try to understand the table

OBSERVED RESULT
constantly scrolling back and forth between the table and  text  

EXPECTED RESULT
be able to split the view of the PDF into two separate scroll-able regions of
the screen so that both the table and the text are visible at the same time.

similar to how a spreadsheet applications have the horizontal divider you can
pull down to split the view and give two independent scroll bars.

other suggestions about opening multiple instances of the PDF don't work
because you can only have one instance of a document open at a time in okular,
they cant be in separate windows or separate tabs unless you make a copy of the
document and rename it.
