pdfpc is a GTK-based presenter console for PDF presentations with multi-monitor support. It shows the slides to the audience on one screen while giving the speaker a private view with the next slide, notes, timer, and slide overview.

Use cases

  • present a PDF slideshow with a private presenter view on a second monitor
  • see speaker notes and next slide while presenting LaTeX beamer slides
  • keep a countdown timer during a conference talk
  • navigate slide overlays and jump to slides mid-presentation
  • present PDFs with embedded videos

When to choose

  • you present PDF slides (e.g., from LaTeX beamer) and want Keynote-like presenter tools on Linux/macOS
  • you need notes, timers, and slide overview on a second screen
  • you want a lightweight, package-manager-installable presentation viewer

When to avoid

  • you need to edit or create presentations rather than present them
  • you require PowerPoint/Keynote file support instead of PDF
  • you need a Windows-native (non-WSL) presentation tool
