Hi Sarah
Thanks so much for purchasing my plant unit. I'm sorry you are having trouble printing it. Here is a fix for this issue: First, you will need the latest version of Adobe Reader to open the file. You can find it here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5138. It sounds like you are either opening with an older version of Adobe Reader or if you are on a MAC, you may be opening it with a Mac program called "Preview" and not even know it. On a MAC, make sure you are opening in "Open With" rather than "Preview". Often "Preview" is the default setting so be sure to check that.
If that doesn't work, try this advice from TPT Tech Support:

1) Open the PDF file with the newest version of Adobe Reader
2) Click 'print'
3) Click on 'advanced'
4) Check the 'print as image' box, and this should cover all potential issues

My friend Jamie Rector has an excellent blog post with a tutorial on how to solve this very issue. You can find it here: http://2ndgradestuff.blogspot.com/2013/04/help-i-cant-save-or-print-my-tpt-file.html

If after you have tried this you are still having trouble, please let me know at kamp.linda@gmail.com.
Thank you again for visiting my store!

I just purchased this file and it is not opening due to the computer saying it can not be opened in a protected mode on my computer because it looks suspicious. Is the file in another format that I may be able to open?

Hi Brenda,
Thanks so much for purchasing my unit! I'm so sorry you're having trouble downloading it. Here is what you can do: First, make sure you have the most current version of Adobe Reader. It is now 11.0. You can find it here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5138.

Hello - I just bought this and was very excited to open the file and plan. When I opened it, I noticed that many of the pages are blurry. I know that I have purchased from this site before and not had this problem. I wouldn't complain, but I did pay $10 and so many pages are not clear.

Can you help?
Thanks,

Hi Kelly,
Thank you so much for purchasing the unit and I'm sorry you're having trouble printing. It sounds like you may be using an older version of Adobe Reader. They are on 11.0 now last I checked and you can find it here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5138
You will need the latest version to open the file.

Next, are you using a MAC or PC? On a MAC, make sure to click on "Open With" Adobe Reader and not "Preview". If it's still blurry, you may be still opening in "Preview" and not know it (it may be the default setting), so be sure to check that.
This almost always solves the problem, but please let me know if you are still having trouble at kamp.linda@gmail.com so I can try to help you further.

Linda,
This plant unit is amazing! You did a wonderful job. I love gardening and am so glad to see teachers teaching about plants. Teaching second grade is so rewarding but hard. I just have to follow you!

I have fall photos as a freebie which you could use. You may even like my main free "center" for the beginning of next year. My store: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Store/Anne-Weaver

Keep creating,

Hi there! Thanks so much for purchasing the unit and I'm sorry you're having trouble printing. Here's what you do: Make sure you have the latest version of Adobe Reader, I think it is 11.0 now and you must have this to open the file. On a MAC, make sure to "Open With" ADOBE READER and not "Preview". If it's still blurry, you may be opening it with "Preview" and not know it so be sure to check that. This should fix the problem.

I just bought this and it prints with black marks on it. Do I need to download something???

Linda Kamp  (TpT Seller)
Hi Lopezgirls! I'm sorry you're having trouble! No, you don't need to download anything but you do need to check a couple of things: On a MAC or PC, install the latest version of ADOBE READER. This part is very important. I believe it is 11.0 now and you can find it here: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5138 Then, open the file with ADOBE READER. On a MAC, make sure to "Open With" ADOBE READER and NOT Preview. You may be opening in PREVIEW and not even know it. Mac has documented problems opening Adobe files and you will need to be sure you are not in PREVIEW. Try this and please let me know if you are still having problems (kamp.linda@gmail.com) so I can help you further if necessary.

Hi, I downloaded this and it looks like a wonderful resource, but I'm getting fuzzy lines on many of the pages where text or something should be. It makes it unusable. I have a mac, so this could be why. Do you recommend a program to try on a Mac? It downloaded as a PDF and I am unable to open it in other programs.

Hi. I am wondering what you made the vocabulary cards on and if I can get the template or if you could just tell me the font and program that you used... I'd like to use that same format for the rest of my vocab throughout the year. Thanks!

Hi Tina! I haven't changed any of the content in the unit. I had a buyer request answer keys for the graphic organizers. She was not familiar with some of them and wanted to be sure she was using them correctly so I added those. Thanks so much for asking!

I had trouble downloading your product,Plant lifecycles. Many of the pictures or text did not download correctly,left a large black rectangle. I bought many other products at the same time from various sellers and did not have any trouble with their products. Any suggestions....I am anxious to use the material but can't without complete pages.

Hi Cheryl,
Thank you so much for your purchase and for asking! When this happens you can solve it this way: on a MAC or PC, install the latest version of ADOBE READER. Then, be sure you click "open with" to open the file with ADOBE READER. On a MAC, make sure to "Open With" ADOBE READER and not Preview. This usually solves the problem every time, but if you are still having trouble can you let me know at kamp.linda@gmail.com?
