PRESENTER VIEW IS GRAYED OUT, SO I CAN’T SEE MY NOTES WHILE PLAYING!

I WANT TO MAKE THE GAME ON ONE COMPUTER AND PLAY ON ANOTHER. IS THIS POSSIBLE?

Yes! If you’re using special fonts (e.g. you downloaded rare fonts to customize your game to your organization's fonts) you’ll want to embed the fonts into the save file.

​

You can do this by clicking File > Options > Save and clicking “Embed fonts in this file.”
