Presentation and Full-screen Modes Full-screen reading is handy. No more losing your place to peek at a citation! For more fun, command-click on a link to pop up a snapshot window showing the link�s destination. Tooltips If a PDF has links, such as for citation references or indexes and section headings, you can click on them as usual to go to the destination, but there�s more - hover the mouse over those links and Skim will show you a tooltip with the target of the link.

Just like in Preview, you can search, scan, and zoom through PDFs, but you also get some custom features for your workflow: Snapshots If there�s a graph on page two and the description continues to page three, just draw a box around the graph with the command key down and a snapshot window pops up with the graph, and you can keep on reading with the graph in view.įor more fun, minimize that snapshot window - they stick around in their own dock in the document window.

Skim is a PDF reading and note-taking app for Mac OS X that is designed to make reading research papers and manuals better.
