From camera roll to a book they can colour
The coloring page maker turns one photo into one page. This does the whole book: every picture is turned into line art with the same settings, laid out on the page size you choose with even margins, and written as a single PDF you can print at home or send to a printer.
What goes in the PDF
- A title page with your title, a subtitle and, if you like, a “this book belongs to” line.
- One picture per page, fitted inside the margins without being stretched.
- Page numbers, and blank backs for marker-friendly printing.
- Letter, A4, 8 × 10, 8.5 × 8.5 square or 6 × 9 pages.
Pictures that make good pages
One clear subject on a plain background: a pet on the floor, a child's toy, a house against the sky. Busy backgrounds turn into busy pages; clear them first with the background remover if they are plain enough, or crop in close. Drawings and existing line art are detected and used as they are.
The step-by-step, including printing double-sided, is in how to make a coloring book from your own photos.
Questions
Can I make a coloring book from my own photos?
Yes. Drop in the photos: each one is turned into line art, one picture per page, and the whole book downloads as one PDF with an optional title page, page numbers and a “this book belongs to” line. Pictures that are already drawings are used as they are.
Is it really free?
A book of up to 12 pictures is free, with no watermark and no account. Pro takes up to 100 pictures in one book, and covers every other tool on the site.
What are the blank pages for?
Markers soak through ordinary paper. With “a blank page behind every drawing” switched on, each picture is printed on its own sheet with nothing on the back, so one child's masterpiece does not ruin the next page.
Can I sell a coloring book I make here?
The line art is yours to use. Whether you can sell it depends on the pictures you started from: your own photos and drawings, yes; somebody else's photos or characters, only with their permission. If you are printing through a print-on-demand service, set its current trim size and margins here, and check its rules for the interior file.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. The line art is found and the PDF is written by code running on this page. Nothing leaves your computer, which is why there is no counter on the free book.
