Can these newletters be transferred to a webpage?

You could save them as a PDF and upload or insert that way if your web page program allows you do that. :) I hope that helps! Jen

Amie Andre (TpT Seller) re: PAGES Modern Newsletter Template Set - Create on the Go Using iPhones & iPads!
I purchased your modern newsletter templates. How can I get the photo page into the same document as the newsletter? I email mine. Also, why is there not a matching picture page for aqua/turquoise owl page? Thanks. Amie Andre

Hi, I just purchased the Modern Newsletter Template Set, but it says there is an error with the content. When I tried to unzip the files, it said I needed a password. Is there something else I need to do? Thanks!

Hi Kayt~
(Update: Please download the free preview file. I've added pictorial instructions on how to extract.)
Thank you so much for your purchase! Sometimes districts do not allow their employees to open zipped files on computers due to security concerns about what their employees might download. I can assure you these files are 100% safe, so if this is the case with your district there are a couple of things we can do.
However because it is saying there is error, I'm wondering if the files need to be unzipped/extracted? Usually this can be done by right clicking on the folder you downloaded and selecting "extract all." Your computer should then ask where you want to save the extracted files. They will open from the UNzipped folder.
If you are still unable upzip, there are two things we can do - if you'd like to email me at jenireni3@gmail.com, I will reply back with the unzipped templates attached. Another option is to unzip the files on a non-district computer and off your district's wifi network. You can then save the templates on a thumb drive or email the files to yourself for school use.
Please let me know how can I best support you!
Thank you again,
Jen

Debberoo re: PAGES Modern Newsletter Template Set - Create on the Go Using iPhones & iPads!
I downloaded to my Macbook and unzipped files no problem but I can't edit. The template says "locked" at the top. What am I doing wrong/how do I unlock the pages?
Thanks!
p.s LOVE them!

I am so happy you love them. Thank you so much for your purchase! Now let's problem solve this! :) Are you able to click on the text and edit it or add pictures?? All of that should be editable as downloaded.
The background is locked in place to line up with pictures and text boxes, but can be unlocked by doing the following: Click on the background. Then go to the ARRANGE menu at the top and then click on unlock.
Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you again, Jen

Hi Wendy,
(Update: Please download the free preview file associated with this product. I've added pictorial instructions on how to extract.)
I just downloaded the product to make sure the product was working correctly and it is, however the folder does need to be unzipped once downloaded.
Have you unzipped/extracted the files? Usually this can be done by right clicking on the folder and selecting "extract all." Your computer should then ask where you want to save the extracted files. They will open from the unzipped folder.
If you continue to have trouble, please email me at jenireni3@gmail.com and I'll send the templates to your email unzipped. I hope this helps. Please let me know how else I can help. I want to make sure you get these! :)
Thank you,
Jen

race re: Newsletter Templates - Easy to Use - Set of 11 Templates Fall and School Theme
I never see this question, so maybe there's an obvious answer, but I don't know it. How do we buy newsletter templates, post them on classroom websites, and keep them from being saved and used by parents/others? I'm afraid of giving away your product.
Thanks!
Thanks!
January 8, 2013
The Upper Elementary Classroom (TpT Seller)
Good question! Thank you for asking. Save your file as a PDF . You may already know how to do this, but there are two common ways. Sometimes you have this option when going to "Save As..." Also it's sometimes an option when you print - there's sometimes a pull down menu to "save to PDF." Hope that helps. Let me know if you have any other questions. :) Jen
