Copy your fonts
In previous posts I have recommended that you find and download some different fonts for your presentations, so that you can avoid your presentation looking like another boring presentation.
But, when you do this, you will need to remember to take a copy of your font with you when you present.
The other day, I was preparing to use a presentation file. After I had opened my file, I got the above warning message. I then checked to see what the problem was and discovered the following:
I had used a font that was on my desktop at home, but a font I had not put onto my laptop computer.
So remember, next time you download a font, keep a copy of it on a USB driver or flash memory stick, so that if you are presenting on someone else’s computer, you will be able to put the font onto that computer without losing anything from your presentation.
