Printing tips
  • Pick A4 in the UK, Europe and most of the world, or US Letter in the US and Canada.
  • In your printer settings choose 100% or Actual size rather than "Fit to page".
  • Thicker paper (120–160 gsm) is lovely for felt tips and paints, and stops colours showing through.
  • No Background files are transparent PNGs: great for colouring apps on a tablet.
