How to change a route from Guide 20 to Guide 19

Because Guide Versions in MileMaker rely on separate underlying map data, some of the stops might not match up exactly when switching from Guide 20 to Guide 19, or visa versa. This how-to guide aims to explain how to solve those issues that might arise when switching guides.
