PDF Kompaniec

About

PDF Kompaniec is a live PDF presenter — clicker, second screen or Syphon into Resolume. Operator panel in Russian, English, Chinese and German.

Open a file, folder or saved show — one set for the whole night. Operator view: current and next slide, clock, song timer and notes the audience never sees.

Output to any display format you need, or as Syphon source “PDF Kompaniec”. Crossfade between slides so Resolume does not jump.

Pointer, marker, frame, magnifier. Jump to slide from keyboard or bookmarks like “intro” and “chorus”. Save set, format and bookmarks in a .kompaniec show file.

Drive slides with a clicker, output to a display or into Resolume via Syphon, keep operator notes and cues offstage, save the set for the next night. UI in Russian, English, Chinese, and German.

How to open PDF in Resolume Arena
