Quick Presenter v1.4.0 brings the completed presenter and renderer reliability work ahead of v1.5.0, and provides the packages used to qualify signing and the next Microsoft Store update.

Highlights

  • Isolate PDFium rendering in supervised, resource-bounded helper processes: signed sandboxed XPC on macOS, AppContainer on Windows, and Landlock/seccomp on Linux.
  • Restore native Open Recent menu updates and tighten speaker-note detection to supported annotation fingerprints.
  • Automatically fit presenter-note text within the notes area and use accessible icon navigation controls.
  • Restore slide-window placement and the last active PDF, and add the X shortcut for swapping presenter and audience displays.
  • Adapt audience rendering and cache budgets to the slide surface while preserving bounds and the last successfully rendered page.
  • Fix stale audience content when a hidden macOS slide window is shown, and improve Linux desktop icon/startup identity.
  • Include artifact-bound CycloneDX SBOM sidecars and research on speaker-note PDF compatibility. Standard PowerPoint, Keynote, and Google Slides PDF exports do not gain automatic presenter-note support.

Downloads

  • macOS: QuickPresenter-1.4.0.dmg, Developer ID signed, Apple-notarized, and stapled.
  • Ubuntu x64: quick-presenter_1.4.0_amd64.deb.
  • Windows x64: Install from Microsoft Store. The v1.4.0 Store update requires separate submission and Microsoft certification. GitHub publication does not mean that the Store-installed app has updated. Direct MSI/MSIX/executable downloads are not supported distribution channels.

Quick Presenter opens PDF slide decks. It does not edit slides or import authoring source files.

Validation

  • CI and Build Binaries passed for the tagged source 7d87370c70a3f20f697ed02eac5f25aa379e12f0 on all three platforms.
  • The final macOS DMG was Developer ID signed, Apple-notarized, stapled, and accepted by Gatekeeper. The signed XPC rendering/sandbox gate and mounted-DMG PDF smoke passed. The desktop GUI suite passed 63 checks; targeted normal-entry navigation, notes, fullscreen, native PDF selection, and hidden-slide hot-reload recovery checks also passed.
  • The exact installed Ubuntu Debian package passed 63 GUI checks under Xvfb with zero failures. Package version, final SHA-256, and SBOM identity were checked after download.
  • Final package-bound SBOM sidecars are attached. The macOS SBOM was regenerated and verified after production signing, notarization, and stapling. The Windows sidecar describes the Store submission input, not a certified Store-delivered package.
  • Local and CI dependency audits passed. The reviewed maintenance warnings for bincode and ttf-parser remain; no vulnerability failure was reported. Bundled PDFium remains chromium/8076; the pre-release review of newer chromium/8086 and the pin-retention decision are recorded in the attached release checklist.

Qualification limits and explicit waivers

This normal release is being used to qualify packages before v1.5.0. The exhaustive physical-desktop GUI checklist was not repeated on Windows or Ubuntu. Ubuntu has installed-package Xvfb evidence; Windows has CI package/AppContainer checks and a reachable public Store listing, but current Store installation/runtime was not tested in this macOS session. Those unavailable manual checks are explicitly waived for this publication and remain follow-up under #202.

macOS targeted desktop checks passed, but dual-display swapping, mixed-DPI movement, physical monitor disconnect/reconnect, every native focus/launcher path, and a fresh-user download/quarantine installation were not repeated. These checks are also explicitly waived for this package-validation release. The attached platform reports state the exact coverage; a complete manual matrix is not claimed.

Microsoft Store submission, certification, production Store signing, and installed-version confirmation occur separately after GitHub publication. Mac App Store distribution remains optional. This release does not close the v1.5.0 release tracker.
