Thanks for the information. In my situation, it seems I am at the mercy of others, since the session at which I will be talking will use a single laptop to project all the speakers’ slides (from thumb drives).
<div>Maybe I will forward your emails to the session organizers, and they may use one of the workarounds which you suggested.</div></div><div style="word-wrap:break-word;line-break:after-white-space"><div><br>

This is a bug I reported to Apple over a year ago. After a delay, I received a note from them that my report was a "duplicate bug report." This cut me off from further reports about the bug, because to preserve developer privacy Apple sends information about
bugs only to the initial reporter and not to those duplicating the report.<br>
<br>
All I can suggest is that TeX users write Apple directly. There is no official channel for doing this unless you are a developer. If you are at a university, it might be useful to contact your computer support people and ask them to pursue the matter with Apple.<br>
<br>
To be fair, Apple gave very useful information about other bug reports I submitted. I've found Mojave to be stable and responsive. But then, I never enter single page mode.<br>
<br>
-----------------------------<br>
<br>
Let me, however, recommend a program named "Presentation" by Renaud Blanch. See<br>
<br>
<span class="m_621415522064055690Apple-tab-span" style="white-space:pre-wrap"></span><a href="http://iihm.imag.fr/blanch/software/osx-presentation/" target="_blank">http://iihm.imag.fr/blanch/software/osx-presentation/</a><br>
<br>
This is a free program which can display Beamer slides. It provides many desirable features; for instance the presenter can see an overview of the slides while selecting one to display. But I mention it particularly because it is immune from the bug.<br>

<br>
I have been struggling with this issue for at least a year now, for all my documents. I just had to give up on the advantages of single-page mode. Even in continuous-page mode, if I go directly to the last page, sometimes the second-to-last, too, the page is
fuzzy for half a second or so.<br>
<br>
That said, there is no issue when projecting the pdf output of slides using Acrobat. Thus you do not need to worry about imposing that behavior on your audience.<br>
