Cursor options for Adobe Reader in Full Screen mode

I've made the change from Powerpoint to Beamer for most of my stuff. There is just one last detail that I need to address.

When I use Adobe Acrobat Reader in Full Screen mode as a presentation tool, the only cursor style I have access to is a silly white hand with a down arrow in the middle of it. It's not noticeable enough. I'd like to replace it with something much more noticeable, like the laser pointer option in Powerpoint.

If tried to figure out how to do this in the Windows 10 cursor options -- but I don't even see the hand with the arrow that Acrobat Reader uses in the list that comes up, which makes it very hard to replace.

I'm also quite willing to use any (free) pdf reader that would provide me with the right option, but Foxit and Sumatra don't seem to do any better.

If I could find a straightforward artifact-free way to bring the pdf's into powerpoint, that would work too, but I haven't found one. If I have to do this slide-by-slide instead of file-by-file, that's not an amenable solution.

• Have you tried the options in this Tex StackExchange question ? Otherwise, you could try to render to PNGs and then bring those into PowerPoint? –  davidmneedham Jan 23, 2018 at 15:23
• @davidmneedham -- thanks, but I need to stick with realistically portable options. The lions share of the suggestions in the thread are for linux, and the recommendations are for a second-screen requirement, which I don't have. The png export is always an option, but that's what I meant by "Slide-by-Slide" –  Scott Seidman Jan 23, 2018 at 16:53

I found a solution by combing your suggestion of using another pdf viewer - the Sumatra or PDF-XChange Editor - and changing the system mouse pointer as described here https://softwarerecs.stackexchange.com/questions/16761/presentation-software-with-a-cursor-looking-like-a-laser-pointer-instead-of-mous

"Go to the Mouse properties control panel, in the Devices and Pointers control panel section, click on the Pointers tab. Under the Customise scroll box there is a Browse... button. Clicking this allows you to select a .cur file to change the cursor's appearance. However, the built-in cursor files do not provide a laser-like cursor. This is where you have to create your own."

With just Adobe Acrobat:

• Cursor size: With current version of Adobe Acrobat Reader, the mouse pointer size follows the size set in Windows: Settings → Cursor & Pointer .
• Then, in full-screen mode, Shift + D switches to different annotation tools (side effect is that it changes the cursor for some of them). After pressing it about 7 times , you will get a pen . You can use it to draw on the slide as well!
• H will get you your hand cursor back.
• S For a speech-bubble (comment - sticky note) cursor

Turn your mouse into a laser pointer

When you're showing a presentation, you can turn your mouse into a laser pointer to draw attention to something on a slide.

Turn on the laser pointer

Do one of the following:

To use the laser pointer in Slide Show view:    On the Slide Show tab, click either From Beginning or From Current Slide to start your slide show.

To use the laser pointer in Reading view:    On the View tab, click Reading View .

Press and hold the Ctrl key, and then click and drag the left mouse button to point to the contents on the slide that you want to draw attention to.

Tip:    If you want your audience to see the laser pointer but not your mouse pointer, be sure to press and hold Ctrl before you move your mouse to keep the mouse pointer hidden.

Change the color of your laser pointer

By default, the color of the pointer is red, but green and blue are also available. To change the color of the laser pointer, do the following:

On the Slide Show tab, in the Set Up group, click Set Up Slide Show .

In the Set Up Show dialog box, under Show options , select the color that you want from the Laser pointer color list, and then click OK .

Record your laser mouse pointer movements

(For complete details about recording and timing your slide shows, see Record a slide show with narration and slide timings .)

To record your laser pointer movements to enhance a web-based or self-running slide show, do the following:

Click either Start Recording from Beginning or Start Recording from Current Slide , depending on where you want to start to record your slide show.

In the Record Slide Show dialog box, select the Narrations and laser pointer check box.

Click Start Recording .

Tip:    To pause the narration, in the Recording box, click Pause . To resume, click Resume Recording .

Press and hold Ctrl, and then click and drag the left mouse button to point to the contents on the slide that you want to draw attention to.

To move to the next slide, release Ctrl, and then click the left mouse button.

To end your slide show recording, right-click the slide, and then click End Show .

The recorded slide show timings are automatically saved and the slide show appears in Slide Sorter view with timings under each slide.

To view the pointer movements and timings you just recorded, on the Slide Show tab, in the Start Slide Show group, click either From Beginning or From Current Slide .

To re-do your pointer movements or slide timings, just repeat these steps.

Turn your pointer on or off

The pointer is set to Automatic , which means it is hidden automatically after three seconds of inactivity. The pointer appears again when you move the mouse.

On the Slide Show tab, click either Play from Start or Play from Current Slide to start your slide show.

In Slide Show view, four helper buttons appear at the lower left corner of your slide. The second one determines how the mouse pointer appears to viewers:

Click that Pen button, and then choose Laser Pointer from the pop-up menu:

Press the Option key, and then click and drag the left mouse button to point to the contents on the slide that you want to draw attention to.

In Slide Show mode, click the Laser Pointer icon at the lower left portion of the slide:

On the pop-up menu, point to Laser Color , and then select the color you want.

Click through Slide Show by using your Bluetooth pen

Enhance PDF Presentations with full-screen mode and page transitions

Full-screen mode allows you to set PDFs for Presentations, filling the entire screen and hiding Acrobat's menu bar, toolbar, and window controls.

You can establish consistent initial views for your documents or collections of documents.

Page transitions can be added to create visual effects as viewers navigate through the document.

Set initial view

When users open your PDF document or Portfolio, they see the initial view. You can s et the initial view to your desired magnification level, page, and layout.

In Acrobat Pro, Action wizards enable changing default settings for multiple documents.

To set the initial view:

• From the dialog, select the Initial View tab.
• Navigation tab - Determines which panels are displayed in the navigation pane.
• Page layout - Determines how the document pages are arranged.
• Magnification - Sets the zoom level for the document after it's opened. The default uses the magnification set by the user.
• Open to page - Specifies the page that appears when the document opens.
• Window Options - Determines how the window adjusts in the screen area when a user opens the document. These options apply to the document window itself in relationship to the screen area of the user’s monitor.
• Interface Options - Determines which parts of the interface—the menu bar, the toolbars, and the window controls—are hidden.
• Select Open in Full Screen mode  check box.
• For the Navigation tab, select Page Only .
• For Page layout, select Single Page .
• Set  Open to page  to the page where you want to start the presentation.
• Select Ok .
• Save and reopen the file to view the effects.

In full-screen mode, users can press the "Esc" key to exit if their preferences permit it. However, users can only execute commands or choose tools using keyboard shortcuts. To maintain functionality, consider setting up page actions within the document.

Two factors can alter page layout and magnification:

Selecting Default for the Magnification and Page Layout options will follow the user's settings in the Page Display preferences.

If you hide the menu bar and toolbars, users can only use commands or select tools with keyboard shortcuts. Consider creating page actions that temporarily conceal interface controls while the page is visible.  See Add actions with page thumbnails .

Add page transitions

You can create engaging effects when advancing pages by using page transitions.  Acrobat Pro's Actions wizard allows you to set page transitions for multiple documents.

From the All tools menu, select Organize pages > Page transitions .

Or select the desired page thumbnails in the Page thumbnails panel, then choose Page transitions from the Options menu.

In the Page   transitions dialog, pick a transition effect from the Transition menu. These effects are identical to the ones in the Full Screen preferences.

Select the direction and speed of the transition effect. Options vary based on the transition.

Select Auto Flip and enter the time interval in seconds for automatic page turning. If this option isn't selected, users must turn pages using keyboard commands or the mouse.

Specify the Page Range to which the transitions should apply.

If the 'Ignore All Transitions in the Full Screen' setting is enabled in Document preferences, users won't see the page transitions.  Acrobat also supports PowerPoint's page transitions and bullet fly-ins.

The 7 Best Tools to Present and Share Your PDF Files Online

PowerPoint is seen to be boring. Presenting with PDF files can be a quicker and easier alternative. Here are seven selected tools to present & share your PDF files online.

PDF files are the standard format when sharing documents, and it's easy to see why. They open on all operating systems, they can be password-protected, copy-and-edit-restricted, and you can even prevent others from printing them out.

PDF files aren’t affected by viruses, so you can pretty much always open them with confidence. A PDF file opens almost instantly, you can easily embed videos, as well as pictures, sound files, and other media. Take that, Microsoft Word!

As with any other type of file, a PDF is only as good as your ability to share it with others. Here are our top picks for the best free PDF hosting out there.

PDF Hosting for Beginners: The Run-Down

Many websites are now able to host PDFs online. The PDF file remains open inside of a widget; you can scroll through it right in your browser. From Supreme Court rulings to America's favorite recipe for chocolate cake, you're likely to find all kinds of PDFs after a quick Google search.

Other tools enable you to easily convert other files to the PDF format. For example, if you have a PowerPoint presentation, you can export it as a PDF to share. You might even end up with better-looking slides in the process.

Which PDF-hosting sites are the best? Which one should you be using? Read on to see some that you might already know and use, along with a few new ones, as well.

We'll start off with perhaps the most well-known way to host a PDF online. Scribd is now positioning itself as a monthly subscription service for eBooks and audiobooks—in fact, you can't even crack in without forfeiting your credit card information first.

Thankfully, you're still able to search Scribd's archives without paying. If you use the search function with a documents-only filter enabled, you'll see many PDFs hosted here. You can search within these documents, share them on social media, rate them, and even download them for yourself in some cases.

Scribd Features

• Documents can be public or private.
• You can upload multiple files at once.
• You can upload revisions smoothly.
• You can upload cloud-based files from Google Docs, Facebook, and Gmail, too.
• You can set reader permissions and decide if your content can be copy and pasted from the site, if people can leave comments and reviews on your work, and even whether or not your PDF is available to download.
• If your document is in another format, you can convert it to PDF.
• You can embed a PDF file (Either yours or someone else's) on your website.
• Scribd makes your content readable on iPhone, iPad, Android, and other mobile devices.

2. Google Drive

Google Drive is absolutely fantastic , and one really cool feature is the ability to upload documents and then re-download them as a PDF file.

Google Drive can help you publish your PDF documents publicly, which can then be shared to a wider audience. You can also embed the file on your website; access can be revoked at any time.

Google Drive Features

• Convert multiple formats into a PDF file.
• Publish your documents to the public.
• Revoke access at any time.
• Embed a PDF file on your website or blog.
• Edit the original file and see the published file updated automatically.
• Control who can edit the PDF file.

Box is so underrated , probably due to its well-known rivals, Dropbox, OneDrive, and Google Drive. If you can find it in your heart to give Box a shot, however, you might be pleasantly surprised. One of these features is the ability to embed PDF files inside of a widget, just like these other options.

Box Features

• Choose your own custom URL for the widget.
• Customize the look of the widget's size and color.
• Protect the shared link with a password .
• Set a date for the link to expire.
• Enable or disable download permission for your documents.

Beamium offers a drag-and-drop interface; uploading PDF files is quick and easy. It works as a great virtual alternative to PowerPoint. You upload your slides as a single PDF file and are then given a unique presentation code. You can send this URL to everyone that you would like to share your PDF presentations with.

Attendees then go to the Beamium site, enter the code, and see what you've uploaded in real-time as you present it. You shuffle from slide to slide from home, and your invited viewers watch right along, just like a real PDF presentation. You can even activate a small, digital laser pointer, college professor-style.

Beamium Features

• Simple and appealing service.
• Your files stay hosted on the Beamium site for 14 days if you register for an account.
• Browser-based, cross-platform, and no software to download.
• Presentations are displayed in full-screen.

5. Publitas

If you're looking for a stable way to monetize your publication, a Dutch company called Publitas aims to serve. It's a site that will host your PDF publications and allow customers to buy them through an online checkout system. You can also upload PDFs that are free to read and download as well.

There are different pricing tiers—a free plan, and four paid plans. The free plan is extremely generous, though, so you may never need to upgrade.

Publitas Features

• Extremely intuitive to use.
• Touch-optimized for mobile devices and tablets.
• You can add links to other parts of the publication, as well as additional media.

6. F lipsnack

Flipsnack is a service that lets you create an online flip book out of your PDF. You can edit the pages of your file with an incredibly diverse suite of design tools as well.

If you need a template, you'll be covered here. Their interface gives you many layers to work with; designing an interactive e-com catalog, for example, is super easy. You can create clickable buttons, image pop-ups, and even conditional discounts.

Flipsnack Features

• A Wix-like design studio lets you build each layout from scratch.
• Pages can be rearranged and redesigned after being uploaded.
• Easy-to-customize templates.
• Built-in image editor.
• Media integration—audio, video, hyperlinks, and even forms.

Slides is yet another site for creating slide presentations from uploaded PDF documents. Each page will become a slide. You can then add text, more images, tables, graphs, and other media.

Each file uploaded is public, unless you pay for the Pro plan. A small luxury, but, in some cases, well-worth the premium.

Slides Features

• No need to download anything. Everything is done in-browser.
• Optimized for mobile devices and tablets.
• Slides can be embedded on the web.
• You can download slides to view offline.
• Presentations can be remote-controlled by a touch-enabled device.

Host a PDF Online for Your Next Big Presentation

Putting on the show of a lifetime doesn't have to be a pain. These services make sharing PDFs online easy and convenient. Some of them even rival PowerPoint in their ability to create a live presentation out of your PDF.

In our digital world of remote offices and classrooms, the ability to share PDFs effectively is unquestionable. If you're working on a budget, any of the above will help you get your files where they need to go, totally free.

Laser-like pointer for PDF Viewer

I have some slides in PDF format. I need to show them through Skype (screen sharing). Is there any PDF viewer in Ubuntu that provides the possibility to have some kind of laser-like pointer to show/underline parts of my slides?

• 1 Does this answer your question? Is there a cursor theme that looks like a laser pointer? –  Archisman Panigrahi Apr 16, 2023 at 22:47

Okular allows draw over PDF. Not a laser-mode, but similar to requirement

This might not be exactly what you were looking for, though you could change your cursor to look more obvious.

You could then change it back to the "normal" cursors after the presentation is done.

You could use MARKITOS66's bDMZ cursors , make a "presentation theme" which changes the cursors to this custom one, then use it while presenting. Again, this might not be exactly what you're looking for, but it is universal, and works with everything, since it isn't a program's feature, but a change to the cursor itself.

Presenter pointer

I lecture off of a pdf file projected onto a screen in a large lecture room. I want to know if Adobe Acrobat supports a laser pointer like SAS JMP does?

Barbara Kuzmak

Voted Best Answer

If you have Adobe Reader XI (or Acrobat) you can use the "Draw free form" (pencil) tool under "Drawing Markups" Comment tools. Go to menu View -> Comment -> Drawing Markups and choose "Draw free form" (pencil) tool to do this. After selecting the "Draw free form" you can press F8 to hide Toolbars and F9 (Windows) to hide Menu Bar. Press F8 and F9 to show them again. If you right click the drawing markup you can change its properties, such as thickness, and make them default. When you lecture off you can place a drawing markup to highlight whatever you want and Ctrl-Z do remove it.

Is there a laser pointer option in Edge browser.?

Sometimes I use PDF files as presentation media with Edge browser. On such occasions, I want a laser pointer option in Edge browser.

Unfortunately, it seems that no such option is available with the browser.

I don’t like the inking option and need a solution similar to the laser option in PowerPoint software.

Can you suggest such a feature available with Edge?

I would prefer an add-on if possible.

Coordinates of Elektrostal in decimal degrees

Coordinates of elektrostal in degrees and decimal minutes, utm coordinates of elektrostal, geographic coordinate systems.

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
