QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:

This is my first time purchasing something on this site... so I may not know exactly how it works. I printed out all of the pages and none of the "center cover sheets" had directions. Where can I find the directions? I made up what I THOUGHT it would be... but it would be nice to have the instructions on each page. Also... did I print incorrectly if I have black marks across most of my mostly blank pages (the thank you page, etc...). Any tips or hints you can provide would make my experience better.
Thank you!!
Hey there! I will do anything I can to make your first experience buying from TpT better! The Lucky Learners centers have direction sheets and there shouldn't be any black marks in the file. Was the download like that in Adobe or just when you printed it out? Here are some things to try...
1. Make sure you are using an up to date version of Acrobat Reader.
You can check the version by clicking Help then About from within
reader. If you have a version earlier than 5.0 or 6.0, you should
update your reader.
2. If you have a Mac, you may be opening it with a Mac program
called "Preview" and not even know it. Preview has documented problems
opening modern Adobe files. If you have a Mac, try opening Adobe
Reader first (rather than just clicking on the file), then open the
file within Adobe Reader. You may also choose to set the default
reader to Adobe Reader by following the instructions here.
To change the default reader on a Mac to Adobe:
----------------------------------------------
Click on the icon of a PDF file type then choose File --> Get Info
You will see a dialog box labeled something like this "sample.pdf" Info
Near the bottom, you will see a section titled "Open With:"
That indicates what application on you Mac is the default.
Click on the pop-up to bring up the list of possible applications
and select Adobe Reader (whatever version is installed), then click
"Change All" to make it the default application for all .pdf files.
The OS will then ask you if you are sure, click "Continue."
Now the Mac will use Reader instead of Preview.
Please e-mail me at crazyforfirstgrade@hotmail.com to let me know if this helps!! I really appreciate your purchase and want to make sure you can get the problem fixed!!
Thanks,

why am I not getting all the print and directions? Do I need to download some other program first on my Mac?
