To display properly that presentation, you should embed the fonts in your presentation so that the desired fonts will be available on the other PC.

To embed fonts, do the following:

   1.   In the Save As dialog box, click the Tools button:

Tools in PowerPoint 2016

   2.   Choose Save Options...:

Save options in PowerPoint 2016

   3.   Select the Embed Fonts in the File check box:

Embed fonts in PowerPoint 2016

This option makes the saved file larger than normal, so choose it only when necessary.
