What it does

This button opens the dialog box Document Settings.

Use it for

The dialog box Document Settings is used to make changes to the initial view when opening the PDF.

How to use it

Change the initial view of the PDF (Initial view tab)

The recommended settings for opening the PDF are already preset, so you only need to change them if you have specific requirements.

1. In the Document settings dialog box, switch to the Initial view tab.
2. Make the desired changes.
3. Click OK.

Choose fonts for the PDF export (Advanced tab)

A font can be available on your computer in several versions:

• as a cloud font (provided by Microsoft 365)
• as a system font (installed in Windows for all users)
• as a user font (installed in Windows for your user account only)
• as an embedded font (embedded in the PowerPoint presentation)

In most cases, these versions are identical and this setting makes no difference. Occasionally, though, two versions have the same name but differ, for example in their character set or the shape of their characters. This setting determines which version axesSlide prefers for the PDF export.

1. In the Document settings dialog box, switch to the Advanced tab.
2. In Fonts for export, select the desired option:
   • Prefer installed fonts (default)
   • Prefer cloud fonts
3. Click OK.

In which order are the fonts used?

axesSlide looks for the font in the following order and uses the first version that is available:

When to change this setting: If a font or individual characters look wrong in the exported PDF, axesSlide has probably used the "wrong" version of the font. Switch to the other option and export the PDF again.
