+% To build an accompanying notes file, comment out the first line of `sampleSlides.tex`
+% and build this file. Using the pdf viewer Skim, you can then view the notes file on your
+% own computer while the audience views your projected slides.
+%
+% Instructions:
+% Open both sampleSlides.pdf and sampleNotes.pdf, change displays to "Extended."
+% Move sampleSlides.pdf to the projected screen, and leave sampleNotes.pdf on your screen.
+% In sampleSlides.pdf, select `View > Presentation Options > Synchronized Notes Document`
+% Then select `View > Presentation` to full-screen your slides.
+%
+% The notes slide should then move synchronously with your presentation.
+% NOTE: Be sure to include a note at the bottom of every slide, or your presentations will not
+% be the same length and this trick won't work so well.
