Beta testers wanted to download free poster for use in church toilets

Toilet noticeI’ve done a poster specially designed for church toilets, partly because I felt like it, partly to get the word out about the site and partly because I’d like people to try downloading .pdf files from the site to see whether they work properly. And I wanted to use the phrase ‘Beta tester’ because it makes me sound like I know phrases like that.

So if you can download and print off one of these A4 posters and give some feedback in the comments I’d be most grateful. Does it print ok? Is there anything people need to be told about downloads in different browsers for instance? In Firefox I tend to right click and then select ‘save link as’ because I find Firefox very poor at opening .pdfs in the browser. The .pdfs are the preferred format and the one I will probably be using in future, but I have put a Word document there as well in case anyone has problems with the .pdf format.

Oh, and please do stick a notice up in your church toilets!

Download notice as a pdf file
Download notice as a pdf file for non-Anglicans (Misses out ‘By order of the PCC’ line)
Download notice as a Word document

    Too late! I’ve already flushed a hymn book down the church loo. It fell off the shelf above, honest…..
    I retrieved it and carefully dried it, page by page, only to discover they were changing the hymnbooks anyway and got in a load of brand new ones. Next time I shan’t bother.

    Your PDFs download and print fine. (Do you need to do US size versions for the benighted parts of the globe that do not (yet) use A4 – or is that too much work?)

    The Firefox tip is really a good one as my one complaint about a great “gift horse’s mouth” is that it handles PDFs atrociously.

    Hi Tim – thanks for the feeedback. I had rather hoped that pdfs might resize themselves when you print them, but I suppose if your paper has different proportions then you’re alays going to get a big white space somewhere. Is there any solution you can think of apart from drawing two versions?
