Printables FAQ
Printables FAQ
CAN I PURCHASE PRINTABLE ITEMS using MY iPAD or iPHONE? Yes! You can make purchases from your favorite tablet or other device. However, be sure to open the product emails using your PC or MAC computer - the majority of the files arrive as "ZIP" files containing the printables and will not always open correctly using your iPhone or iPad or other tablet device.
WHAT IS THE BEST TYPE OF PAPER TO USE? For worksheets, coloring pages, or any other type of printable that you are not using more than once, regular printer paper will work great! We recommend using Cardstock or High Gloss Photo Paper for best results on printables that will have more than one use, for example flashcards and readers.
WHAT ARE MY PRINTING OPTIONS? You can either use your own color ink-jet printer or print out at a local print shop (Staples, Kinkos, etc.)
SHOULD I PRINT MYSELF OR SEND THEM TO A PRINT SHOP? You can do either. I would try your personal printer first and if you are not getting a quality image, I may consider taking it to a commercial print shop.
CAN YOU PRINT MORE THAN ONE TIME? Yes! If you save your pdf file, you can print as many times as you would like!
DO I NEED TO BUY ANY SOFTWARE? No. ADOBE ACROBAT READER is the only PDF file viewer that can open and interact with all PDF documents. Adobe Acrobat Reader is a free download. You will need this download to use the editable version of our printables.

- Can be printed more than once!
