Notes
If you use pdf-presenter-console, a
presenter console with multi-monitor support for PDF files, try
\usepackage{beamernotes}
and enter your notes as in
\bnote{my notes}
after the frame
you want to annotate.
The contents will generate a filename.pdfpc file containing all notes to be shown by pdfpc.
Enjoy.
