NAME
Pdf-Presenter-Console - Presentation program for PDF files with off-screen notesSYNOPSIS
pdf_presenter_console [OPTION...] <pdf-file>
DESCRIPTION
The Pdf Presenter Console (PPC) is a GTK based presentation viewer application which uses Keynote like multi-monitor output to provide meta information to the speaker during the presentation. It is able to show a normal presentation window on one screen, while showing a more sophisticated overview on the other one providing information like a picture of the next slide, as well as the left over time till the end of the presentation. The input files processed by PPC are PDF documents, which can be created using nearly any of today's presentation software.OPTIONS

CACHING
To allow fast changes between the different slides of the presentation the pdf pages are prerendered to memory. The small white line on the bottom of the presenter screen indicates how many percent of the slides have been pre-rendered already. During the initial rendering phase this will slow-down slide changes, as a lot of cpu power is used for the rendering process in the background. After the cache is fully primed however the changing of slides should be much faster as with normal pdf viewers.As the prerendering takes a lot of memory it can be disabled using the --disable-cache switch on cost of speed.
Keybindings
During the presentation the following key strokes are detected and interpreted:- Left cursor key / Page up
- Go back one slide
- Right cursor key / Page down / Return / Space
- Go forward one slide
- Home
- Go back to the first slide and reset the timer
- Escape / q /Alt+F4
- Quit the presentation viewer
