Agrium Product Information Labels Accessing and Printing Instructions

The Product Information labels are in a Portable Document Format (PDF).

You will need Adobe Acrobat (Reader or the full version of Adobe Acrobat 5.0 or lower) to access these files. All the PDF files have the following specifications:

Size:   6.75” w x 10.75” h
Colors:  Black and white*
Printing:  Non-bleed
PDF Format: 8.5” x 11” (portrait style) with crop marks

*Color is not a regulatory requirement. Please use black and white copy for all applications. Regulated products are identified with a hatched border.

To access and print these files please refer to the following:

To open a PDF document, do one of the following:

  • Click the Open button, or choose File > Open. In the Open dialog box, select the filename, and click Open. PDF documents usually have the extension .pdf.
  • Choose the document’s filename from the File menu. The menu lists the four PDF documents you last opened.
  • Double-click the file icon in your file system.

Note: On Mac OS, you may not be able to open a PDF document created in Windows by double-clicking the icon. If double-clicking the icon on Mac OS does not open the document, use File > Open in Acrobat to open the document, close the document, and try again. After you’ve used the Open command once on the document, you’ll be able to open the document next time by double-clicking.

To print a PDF document:
If necessary, do the following:

  • Use File > Page Setup to set general printing options. The available options will vary with different printers and drivers. See your printer driver documentation for details.
  • Click the Print button, or choose File > Print. Specify the printer, page range, number of copies, and other options, and click OK. Most of the options are the same as they are for other applications.

Note: These files were designed for “crack and peel” labels. Consult your printer manual for authorization to print on such labels and brands recommended. If you are unable to print these labels, consult a professional printing service or Agrium for assistance.

(To supply the files to an external printing service, simply download the PDF file and save to a floppy disk, or have the external printer refer to the MSDS section of our website. Because the PDF files have been “print optimized” there is no requirement to manipulate the files for printing.)

Note: You can save the PDF in one of two ways:

  1. Right mouse-click on the label link and click "Save Target or Link as..."
  2. Click on the label link and click on disk icon to save a copy to your desktop or disk.
