medienwerk PDF-Presenter

Present your PDFs like a pro.

Your audience sees the slide in full screen on the projector – you see the current and next slide, all slides, the clock and the Ontime timer. Use any presenter clicker, just like in PowerPoint.

Presenter view with current and next slide, slide sidebar and Ontime timer

Everything you need on stage

Second screen

The slide runs borderless in full screen on the projector or monitor – automatically on the screen that does not show the presenter view.

Presenter view

Current and next slide side by side, with talk time and time of day below. You always know what comes next.

All slides at a glance

All slides as thumbnails on the left in 1 to 4 columns. One click jumps to a slide – without the audience noticing.

Clicker & keyboard

Every PowerPoint presenter remote works right away: arrow keys, Page Up/Down, Space, F5, Esc. Number + Enter jumps directly.

Black and white screen

Press B or W to blank the screen – perfect for discussions. The next key brings the slide back.

Ontime & Stagetimer

When the app finds Ontime or Stagetimer in the network, it asks which timer to use – Ontime, Stagetimer or the internal timer. The bottom left then shows only that timer with its stage message and secondary message.

Adjustable layout

Drag to change the width of the slide sidebar and the size of the current and next slide.

Razor sharp

Vector PDFs are rendered at full projector resolution and prepared in advance – the next slide is there instantly.

Mac and Windows

One app for macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Windows 10/11 – in English, German and French.

Take a look

Connects to Stagetimer.io or Ontime

PDF-Presenter finds Stagetimer.io or Ontime in the network automatically and asks which timer to use – the internal timer can be chosen too. The bottom left of the preview always shows only the chosen timer with its messages – the audience sees none of it.

FAQ

Which PDFs work?

All of them – exports from PowerPoint, Keynote, Google Slides, Canva, LibreOffice and others. Rotated pages and portrait format are shown correctly, too.

Does it work with only one screen?

Yes. The presentation then fills the screen like in PowerPoint and the keys keep working. For rehearsals there is a test window.

What is Ontime?

Ontime (getontime.no) is a free stage timer. PDF-Presenter shows its countdown and never controls Ontime.

What is Stagetimer?

Stagetimer (stagetimer.io) is a stage timer in the browser or as a desktop app. PDF-Presenter shows the timer and message of a room – just enter the room ID and API key from Stagetimer. Stagetimer is never controlled.

What happens after the 10 minutes?

The output on the second screen ends and the registration window opens. The presenter view keeps working.
