Printed Materials
Notes and printing problems
You will have to print on both sides of the paper for most of these materials, pay attention to whether your printer is set to print in landscape or portrait mode and if your printer automatically prints on both sides (duplex printing) note which edge it is set to "flip" on.
If any materials do not print properly for you, contact us at
and we'll walk you through it or figure out what changes we need to make in
order to make it work for you.
Homeless Meal Box
You might like this idea to help homeless people too. Put this sign on a can or box and leave it at a friendly restaurant. It also gets the word out for the LYNC Network.

LYNC Network Invitation
This is our favorite and latest invitation. It includes the same brief description of the network that is in the contact card, but also has places to write specific needs and events going on in your neighborhood! They do not have to get on the internet, but right there at the door while you are talking to them, they can see what is going on in the neighborhood. Of course that is at the moment of printing the invitation (or filling it out). So you want to keep it current by printing or filling out only as many as you expect to use that day.
One 8.5"x11" sheet makes 2 invitations. Print both sides, then cut it in half and fold it "offset" from the centerline so the Network name displays on the bottom when it is closed, and the same name is there when you open it as well.
LYNCN/DVD-Invitations/Downloads/Invitation.pdf PDF file for printing only, has to be filled out by hand.
LYNCN/DVD-Invitations/Downloads/Invitation.pub Publisher file, can be customized to include contact info, current events, needs, etc. and printed with computer to save handwriting the specific events and needs.

Computer CD
You can burn your own CDs for distribution.
If you are viewing this from the CD version someone gave you, just make copies of it. If you are viewing the website on the internet you will need to:
-
Download the zip file below
-
Unzip it. If you don't have a program to unzip it: Click here
-
Then burn all the files onto a CD.
(When you paste the files into your writeable CD folder to be burned you may get a message saying there will be some information on the files lost, tell it to copy the file anyway. The CD needs all the files copied and the lost info will not hurt a thing.)
The CD will auto run on Windows computers and has Firefox on the disc in the unlikely event they do not have a browser on their computer. If they do not have windows, any computer with a web browser can open the "index.htm" file manually.
Download the Summit CD zip file
This file is 17 megabytes so you will probably want high speed internet to download it. If you have a dial up connection it would be worth asking a friend with high speed to download it for you. If you want to try dial up it would be wise to use a download manager.
Download managers
If you don't know about download managers, they are helpful for dial up internet accounts. They pick you up where you left off if you get disconnected. It's been so long since I used dial up, maybe they are built into the browsers now, but used to be if you got cut off during a download you had to start over again unless you had a download manager, in which case it would pick up where it left off when the connection was lost.
Managers are often free, here is one we have used before:

Free Office Suite
