Print Guide
Everything you need to turn your digital storybook into a beautifully printed keepsake.
Download your PDF
Once your book is ready, open your book link and choose Download PDF. Save a copy to your device so you can keep it and print it again.
Check your print settings
The PDF has square pages, approximately 8.3 × 8.3 inches (210 × 210 mm). For A4 or US Letter paper, choose Fit to printable area to avoid clipping. Keep colour printing on and print one test page first.
Print at home
Use paper supported by your printer. For double-sided printing, choose paper coated for printing on both sides. Test two pages first to check their orientation and alignment.
Print at a copy shop
Ask your print shop to check the square page size, page order, trimming and binding before printing. Tell them each story passage should face its matching illustration. Request a quote and a proof; prices depend on paper, size and binding.
Bind your book
Keep the PDF in its original page order. A print shop can advise on binding and any blank pages its process requires. Avoid booklet mode unless the shop has prepared the file for that binding method.
Recommended paper
At home: Choose a paper size and weight your printer supports. Small photo paper will shrink the text considerably.
At a print shop: Ask for 120gsm gloss or silk coated paper. Avoid standard 80gsm copier paper — it makes colours look dull.
