This is a nice hint. Also, Skim.app is a pdf reader supposedly optimised for reading journal articles and theses. In particular, it allows split screen and 'snapshots', which are essentially new windows of the same document.
The only problem is that you cannot select and copy text from either the split screen window or the snapshots, which make further searching for references quite difficult. The devs are also fairly resistant to increasing this functionality (for quite baffling reasons, I think).
Good idea. You could also open one version in Preview and another in Skim, and if you really need to, yet another in Safari. How to make pictures higher resolution on mac.
