How it works
- Add a photograph. A clear subject against a plain background works best.
- Leave the lines bold and the background white: that is what a colouring page needs.
- If the result is too busy, try a photo with less detail — a portrait rather than a crowd.
- Download and print it, or put it into “images to PDF” to fill an A4 page.
Frequently asked questions
- What kind of photograph works?
- One with clear edges and an uncluttered background: a face, a pet, a car, a building. A busy scene turns into a mass of small lines that is no fun to colour.
- Why are there grey speckles in the sky?
- Gentle gradients have no edges to find, so the tracing picks up noise instead. A bolder line setting or a photograph with a plainer background clears it up.
- How do I print it at A4?
- Download the picture and put it through “images to PDF” with the A4 page size — or the photo print layout if you want several on a sheet.
- Is my photograph uploaded?
- No. It is processed in your browser, which matters when it is a photograph of your family.
