Viewers without a "reload" command

I have the enviable task of creating an A1-sized poster in LaTeX. I prefer
to proof-read the generated PDF or PostScript file.

Alas, gpdf and Acrobat Reader do not have a "reload" command. So I have to
close the document and reload it after every change.  Tedious.

How f***ing hard is it to implement a keyboard command like Ctrl-R to reload
the document?

Evince has this feature, but (joy!) but it has layout problems with A1-sized
pages.
