Frequently Asked Questions

The questions I get asked most. If yours is not here, the contact page reaches me directly.

Are these coloring pages really free?

Yes — every page on this site is free to download and print. There is no account to make, no email address to hand over, and no watermark on the artwork. The site is paid for by the adverts you see around the pages.

Can I print them at school or in a library?

Please do. Teachers, librarians, childminders, hospitals and community groups are welcome to print as many copies as they need for the children in their care. You do not need to ask.

Can I sell them, or put them in something I sell?

No. The drawings stay ours, and they are offered for personal and classroom use only. That means no reselling the files, no bundling them into a paid product or coloring book, and no re-uploading them to another website.

Should I choose A4 or US Letter?

Pick whichever matches the paper in your printer. A4 (210 × 297 mm) is standard almost everywhere outside North America; US Letter (8.5 × 11 in) is standard in the United States and Canada. Printing one on the other crops the edges.

What paper works best?

Ordinary 80 g/m² copy paper is fine for pencils and crayons. If you are using felt tips or watercolour, use something heavier — 120 g/m² or card stock — so the ink does not bleed through.

How do I print without wasting ink?

Choose Black & white or Grayscale in your printer settings. The line art is pure black on white, so the result is identical and uses far less ink. Draft quality is usually plenty. Full instructions are on the printing guide.

What if I don't have a printer?

Save the PDF to a USB stick or your phone and print it at a library, a school, a copy shop, or the photo counter of most large pharmacies and supermarkets.

Can I ask for a specific coloring page?

Yes, and I would like you to. Send the theme and the age you have in mind through the contact page — reader requests go to the top of my list.
