mom4angela said:I have been trying to make invites with the invite icon provided for us with "Avery" suggested, but I have a Mac (APPLE) and it's just not working (or I might add that I'm NOT able to make it work). I really need help here is there someone that can help me? thanks in advance, Carol
It works for me, and I'm on a Mac. You do need to open the template in Acrobat Reader, not Preview, which is the default in OSX. And then, when you print, uncheck the Autorotate and Center checkbox.

Hi Carol,I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble making invites with the Avery template on your Mac. I understand how frustrating that can be. I would be happy to assist you with this issue.First, make sure that you have the latest version of Avery Design & Print software installed on your Mac. If you don't have it, you can download it for free from the Avery website.Next, try to open the Avery template in the Design & Print software and see if you are able to make any edits. If not, there may be an issue with the software itself. In that case, I recommend reaching out to Avery's customer service for further assistance.If you are able to make edits in the software, but still having trouble printing the invites, make sure you have the correct printer settings selected. You may also want to try printing a test page first to ensure the formatting is correct.I hope this helps! Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you have any further questions or concerns. I'm here to help.Best,Pampered Chef Consultant
