On top of the above, here are a few things to do:
 * Run lintian on your package and fix the warnings, etc.
 * Delete the empty debian/README.source
 * Add a watch file (see uscan(1) for details)
 * When you close bugs from the changelog, you should associate the
   '(Closes: #NNNNNN)' with the description of what you're fixing. For
   example,

   * Submitted to Debian (Closes: #663255)

   or

   * Initial Debian release (Closes: #663255)

   but not

   * Submission for Debian
   * Closes: #663255
 * See the Developers' Reference[0] for suggestions on writing
   descriptions. In particular, I'd recommend:
    + against capitalising the synopsis
    + against making your long description 60 characters wide (there's
      no need for this)
    + against linking to the pdf-presenter-console homepage
    + expanding it: What does your software do, how is it different from
      the pdf-presenter-console package, why should we use it? The long
      description you had in your ITP was a good start.
 
Best wishes,
Ryan
