I have a very wide PDF and I would like to find a PDF viewer which would allow me to split the screen vertically so I can keep the left side the same while scrolling the right side back and forth.
For Mac users, the simplest way for you to snapshot PDF is by using the built-in screenshot configuration. In this method users can capture a whole PDF file by pressing “Shift+Cmd+3” keys, while pressing “Shift+Cmd+4” keys to take regional screenshot.
I found the application http://skim-app.sourceforge.net/, but it only allows one to split the screen horizontally.
Is anyone aware of such a PDF viewer on the Mac?

A quick look suggests that this feature does not exist in any PDF reader.
One responder on this forum [ http://is.gd/i0R12 ] believes that there are no such readers.
Most of the links in this Google search [ http://is.gd/i0QQy ] are requesting such a feature be implemented in some reader, any reader.
You can take a snapshot in Skim (File -> Take Snapshot), then using the wonderful ShiftIt move the snapshot and the main view of the pdf to the opposite sides of the screen (vertically) with just a few keystrokes. Or horizontally. Or to all four corners if you want.
WolphPDFpen 11 seems to support vertical split view of the same pdf.https://smilesoftware.com/pdfpen/entry/new-pdfpen-11-split-view-font-bar-and-for-pro-users-enhancements-to-interactive-form-creation-and-editing
