Hi! Christian, now, after your explanations, I know what-how, and it works, beautifully, of course. I got the resizable Presentation window (by the hidden preferences), which is very convenient - by being able quickly to see what's going on around.
Eberhard, it was good to get your reassurances: thanks! Zoom is indeed fun. Previously, I used Keynote for a distance presentation, prepared with LaTeX and Beamer. But one can't import pdf into Keynote. I did that by dragging the thumbnails, page-by-page, from Preview side pane into Keynote. Last Summer I was able to mark all thumbnails and move them into Keynote, but now that doesn't work. Plus, I do not know how to move pdf from Skim into Keynote, if that's possible. Christian, thank you very much for the wonderfully excellent Skim!
