Rare welshfamily Posted July 21, 2015 #1 Share Posted July 21, 2015 We have had several attempts at printing the guest booklet. Each time the details on the transfer vouchers, air arrangements etc print so faint they are almost impossible to read. We have tried our home printer, office printer and now a professional xerox machine. Each attempt has been in colour. The pictures, text etc which are standard print beautifully each time the problem is only with individual information i.e. Flight details, our names etc. online check in creates a PDF file therefore I can not change the depth or colour of the individual print. Has anyone else had this problem ? Or Can anyone else help please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grandma Gilly Posted July 21, 2015 #2 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Ask your TA to print it out for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoyaheel Posted July 21, 2015 #3 Share Posted July 21, 2015 Each attempt has been in colour. Try printing in black & white, try changing the contrast or brightness (in my adobe program, when I select "print", in the upper right of the dialog box, choose: color/color adjustment) I also have an option to print "Text to Black" (in case the text is a lighter color, grey? as perhaps might be your case) There are options you can play with when printing PDFs.....

pickypicky Posted July 24, 2015 #4 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Am I required to have the guest booklet with me? I'm reluctant to print 32 pages, period. I have my express passes and have taken note of the departure port. Itinerary, check. Just wondering if the booklet is necessary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have never needed ours to board but you may want to have the first page with the port information with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickypicky Posted July 24, 2015 #6 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Thank you. This is our third Azamara Cruise and I have never printed the book. I think my TA must have done it or received it from AZ and sent it on to me. I know that I have had luggage tags in the past. I used an online TA this time. Saved a lot of money, but sacrificed some luxuries in the process, it seems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare welshfamily Posted July 25, 2015 Author #7 Share Posted July 25, 2015 We have a package with Azamara. Flights, pre cruise transfers to a hotel, and the port, the hotel and the transfers back. All these vouchers need printing from the guest booklet. The only two we were bothered about were the pre cruise transfer from the airport and the hotel. Our TA had no more luck than we did. He rang Azamara who said it didn't matter if they could be read as a Azamara rep. would meet us at the airport and the hotel would have our name. I would therefore agree the booklet is hopefully not needed. However other cruise companies have actually collected the vouchers from us e.g. When boarding the bus. Hoyaheel, thank you for your advice. I will try this tomorrow on the high quality printer in work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pickypicky Posted July 25, 2015 #8 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Thank you. I didn't make any arrangements through Azamara, so hopefully I'm all set. :) We sail in a week! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare uktog Posted July 25, 2015 #9 Share Posted July 25, 2015 If you are taking iPad I just save it as a pdf to my documents and delete it when I come home. It's a just in case, to be honest I have never needed it, even when Azamara are doing my transfers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Familygoboston Posted July 27, 2015 #12 Share Posted July 27, 2015 I've started using my iPad to save most of my travel docs in File Browser, or in a pinch just take photos. It's really cut down on the "packet" of papers I need to carry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
