Here are some considerations for preparing Fathom documents to be used by others.

•Make sure the file names end in the Fathom extension .ftm so they can be shared across platforms.

•The focus and size of inspectors are saved with the document. Sometimes it’s helpful to other users to have an inspector appear when the document is opened. Make sure the inspector is on the right panel and it and its panes are sized properly before you save.

•If the file contains simulations such as sampling and collecting measures, leaving animation on for these processes facilitates the user’s understanding of those processes.

•Make your file read-only before disseminating it. (see your computer’s help for details.)
