Printing Tips for the Best Results
- Paper size: Pages are designed for standard home printers. Print on US Letter or scale to A4 using âFit to pageâ or âScale to 95â100%.â
- Paper weight:
- Everyday use: 24â28 lb (90â100 gsm) copy paper
- Marker-friendly or display: 32 lb premium paper or light cardstock (65 lb/176 gsm)
- Ink and outlines: If you notice heavy outlines, set your printer to âGrayscaleâ or âDraftâ to lighten. For crisper lines, use âBest Quality.â
- Markers and bleed-through: Place scrap paper behind your sheet when using markers. Cardstock helps prevent bleed.
- Borderless vs. margins: If your printer supports it, choose borderless for full coverage. Otherwise, leave âfit to printable areaâ on.
- Multiple per page: For party favors or mini color books, print 2 or 4 pages per sheet from your printerâs layout settings.
- Double-sided printing: Recommended only with heavier paper to avoid show-through.
