Audit a deck before presenting. Media (video, audio, animations), hyperlinks, linked files, fonts, and the presenting machine and software: [DECK_AND_VENUE]. Make a check table with Item, Type, Location, Works offline, Tested on venue machine, Fallback and Result. Check that videos play without internet (codecs and sizes), links to other files use full paths and packaged files, website links have screenshots as backup, fonts are available or embedded, animation timings are right (some depend on specific versions), the aspect ratio matches the screen, and a PDF backup exists. Count items checked and passed and show a readiness score. Final run: present the whole deck on the venue machine with the real clicker, timing it. Plan B: a PDF with the key slides and a printed set of notes. Check the software version on the venue machine [VERIFY]. Anything relying on a particular edition or add-on should be labelled [VERIFY]. Put the checks that would stop the talk first, such as video playback and the clicker, and keep the whole test sequence to under 20 minutes.
