 |  
							|  Hi from Nicaragua!   I downloaded many worksheets which when I try to open them in word or as a PDF they are all jumbled up, images on top of text and vice versa.   Is this a known problem and is there any solution to it?     Many thanks!  |  3 May 2016

							| There �s no problem my dear! Well, I �m not a computer expert so forgive me if my�explanation isn �t really understandable...Here is normally what you get�when you�try�to open�your files:
  �At the top of the page you can see it is written "Mode prot�g�" (in the English version of word you �ll see Protected View) you have to disable it in order to fix the positioning problem of the pictures and texts. Here is a link that explains how to do that.
 Hope it helps you a bit! Abigail.

							| Sometimes it is to do with the different versions of word. The file may have been created for example with a 2015 version of word, but opened with an earlier version which it  cannot read properly.   |  4 May 2016
