Our
PDF shop
is run through Big Cartel using the Pulley app, which means it
is technically outside our site. We chose this setup because it
allows instant delivery of PDF patterns to your email address.
This
means you can't combine PDF orders with regular pattern or kit
orders placed on subversivecrossstitch.com, or orders placed through
our Etsy shop. These are three separate entities under the same
roof.
PLEASE
NOTE: If you are ordering from
outside the US, sometimes a shipping fee will accidentally
be added to your Paypal cart. Don't worry - I will refund this
shipping fee. This is just a bug in the machine, since I use the
same address for other Paypal orders. You will NOT
have to pay a shipping fee in the end, I promise to refund it
as soon as I see it! If for any reason you don't see a refund
within 48 hours, please let me know and I'll set things right!
How
to order PDFs through our shop:
1.
Start by choosing the PDFs you want to purchase and add each one
to your cart.
2.
Click on the Checkout icon (or cart) to see your total order.
3.
Once you check out, you'll be taken to Paypal to purchase your
PDF order.
4.
When your order is complete, you'll be taken to a confirmation
page. If the order isn't completed for some reason, you'll be
taken back to the cart.
5.
Check your email, where you should receive a customized order
receipt within minutes. If you don't, please check your junk mail
folder in case the email got stuck in a filter.
6.
Once you receive the email from our Big Cartel store, just click
on the secure download links inside to obtain your PDFs. Be sure
to save the file if you plan to reprint it. There is a limit on
how many times you can download from the secure link.
What's
included in a PDF?
Each
PDF is just like a pattern in any of our kits: one side features
a full-color pattern on a grid; the other side includes a full
page of instructions. You can read the PDF from your portable
device or print it out to use again and again. PDFS (portable
document files) can be opened using Adobe
PDF Reader, available for free download at Adobe.com.
Can
I share PDFS with friends?
You
could, but I hope you won't. Who needs bad karma, right? PDF patterns
are Subversive Cross Stitch® copyrighted designs (All Rights
Reserved). By not re-distributing these patterns, you're keeping
my small home business going. I appreciate your honesty and restraint!
Thank you for being a supporter of Subversive Cross Stitch.
If
you have any problems with the PDF shop, don't hesitate to contact
me. I hope this is a convenient way for you to get patterns
fast--most problems can be solved pretty quickly. I want you to
be happy, so please let me know if something's not working for
you!
