I try to print the PDF and it is just pixelated lines with no text. I’ve tried downloading from the store and Google docs. Am I doing something wrong?

Post authorHI Amber!
You need Adobe Reader to access the printables. Make sure that you have the most updated version – FREE – here:
get.adobe.com/reader/
If the printables still look different, make sure you don’t have them in ‘preview’. There’s something with MAC OSX that defaults to preview instead of Adobe Reader.

I love organization and cleaning sites. Your blog is one of my all time favorites and I’ve been on your email list for more than a year. I’m currently putting together a page of resources for folks to clean and organize their homes. I am definitely including your blog and will recommend your etsy shop.
