Present a PDF File and Time It

I have a PDF file that is 52 pages long.  I want to do a couple of things with the file:

  1. I would like to present the file as sort of a slideshow where each page is displayed one at a time.
  2. I would like to time each slide's progression.  So let's say I have a page/slide up I would want it to stay up for 60 seconds and then transition to the next one automatically.

Is there a way to do this or something similar to what I am trying to accomplish?

    Yes, there is. Go to Edit (or the Reader menu if you're on a Mac) - Preferences - Full Screen and tick the box next to "Advance every X seconds", and set the number to 60. Click OK.

    Now open your file and go to View - Full Screen Mode.

    The file will be displayed on the entire screen and will automatically change to the next page after a minute.

    You can press Esc to return back to the normal viewing mode.

    Thanks.  That is what I am looking for unfortunately you can only do it up to 60 seconds.  I need it just a tad longer.  Thanks again.
