7. Some tips for printing PDF documents:
All pages can be printed on either a color or a black and white printer. It is best to start out printing only about 4 pages at a time, so check your printer dialog box and fill in a range of pages 1-4, pages 5-8, etc. Some printers are set to reduce the size of PDF documents. Our Activity Sheets are designed to have only a 1/2" border, so in your printer's dialog box, just uncheck commands such as "Print to Fit Page", "Shrink to Fit", "Fit to Page", Permit Scaling", etc.
If your printed page does not match the picture on your computer screen, you can check the "Print as Image" box in your printer dialog box.
