Keep your Pulse Dash records.
Your Pulse Dash scores belong to your copy of the PDF. To keep them after closing the document, select save in pdfresh viewer, or save with changes in Chrome’s standalone PDF reader.
The download button on PDFresh always delivers the original release: guest, an empty ranking, and no completed runs. It cannot include a game you are currently playing in another tab.
Save in pdfresh viewer.
- Finish a run and wait for the record update.
- Scroll down to page 2 to check your result.
- Select save. Save the downloaded file on your device.
- Open pdfresh viewer and choose that saved PDF. Your player name and completed runs return.
Scrolling the game out of view or leaving the tab pauses play. Saving keeps completed runs and player records, not an unfinished run’s exact position. The viewer toolbar’s close closes the PDF. It asks for confirmation unless closing is your next action immediately after a successful save.
Save in Chrome’s PDF reader.
- Finish a run, or select QUIT and wait for its final effects and record update.
- Go to page 2 and check the name, best score, maximum combo, and completed-run total.
- In Chrome’s PDF toolbar, select Download → With your changes. This is the PDF reader’s own download control.
- Save the file somewhere you can find it again. Keep the original until you have checked the new copy.
- Open the newly saved PDF in Chrome. Check page 2 and the player-name field on page 1 to confirm that the values returned.
These instructions follow the saving method included on page 2 of Pulse Dash 1.0.0. Browser interface labels can differ. If your reader does not offer saving with changes, use the game’s target reader, desktop Google Chrome.
Choose the right download.
| Action | What you keep |
|---|---|
| Download PDF on the PDFresh website | A fresh, unchanged release of the game. |
| pdfresh viewer → save | Your selected PDF with completed runs and player records saved inside it. |
| Chrome PDF toolbar → With your changes | The interactive file with the records and player name saved in that copy. |
| Print → Save as PDF | A printed document. It does not preserve the interactive game. |
The browser’s Save page as command is also different from the PDF toolbar’s download control. Use the reader’s control when keeping a game.
What the records mean.
Page 2 shows the top ten players in that PDF. The file can retain up to 100 players ordered by score. Best score and best combo are independent values, so they may come from different runs. It is a personal record table, not a global online competition.
The RECORDS number on page 1 matches the completed-run total on page 2. It includes completed games and QUIT results across all players in the file. Opening a file, changing names or pages, starting a run, and saving the file do not themselves add a record.
You can enter a name of up to 16 characters; a blank name plays as guest. Because records travel with a saved PDF, sharing that copy also shares the names and results it contains. Share the original download page if you want someone else to start fresh.
If your scores appear to have disappeared.
First check which file you opened. A browser may keep several copies with similar names, and the website’s download is always clean. Open the exact copy saved with changes and check page 2. If the records are still missing, keep both copies and report the reader, version, and saving steps. Avoid overwriting the only copy that still shows your score.
