Questions about adult coloring books
What is a bold and easy coloring book?
A coloring book with thick outlines, big shapes and simple scenes — relaxing and quick to finish, and easy on the eyes. It is BookArc’s default style, Bold & easy, and the look of many of today’s popular adult coloring books.
Can BookArc make detailed adult coloring pages too?
Yes. Choose Detailed for fine, intricate scenes to spend an evening on, or Medium for something in between. You choose the style before anything is drawn.
Can I sell the adult coloring books I make?
Yes. BookArc takes no rights over the pages and no cut of what the book earns. A KDP paperback needs at least 24 printed pages — 11 designs printed on one side — and when KDP asks whether you used AI for the images, answer yes.
What size should an adult coloring book be?
8.5 × 8.5 in, 8.5 × 11 in, 8 × 10 in, 6 × 9 in — all standard KDP sizes. A square 8.5 × 8.5 in book and the large 8.5 × 11 in are both common for adults.
How many pages can it have?
From 5 to 60 designs, printed on one side with blank backs or on both sides. Blank backs stop markers bleeding onto the next design.
Can I try it for free?
Yes. You get 30 credits when you sign up, with no card — enough to plan and draw a 12-design book with its cover and look through every page. Downloading the files is the part you pay for: plans start at $19 a month.
Your coloring book is free to make.
Describe it in one sentence. BookArc plans the pages and draws every one. 30 credits free, no card; downloads come with a paid plan.
