When you create coloring pages or dot to dot images, please use very
thin pencil and very light gray color. If you use very dark lines and
think lines, after coloring, still the black color will be prominent
and the colored picture will not look good.
After the kid color the image, the original lines should be very
lightly visible so that the colors will be prominent.
Also, take care of other points I mentioned earlier:
1. Make the image as big as possible but it should still fit within 1
page after generating the .pdf file (including the automatically added
footer)
2. Fill as much stuff as possible in each image so that there will be
lot of coloring work to do for the kids
3. DO not have lot of open areas like semi-circle. Kids will be
confused where to stop the coloring. Each area within the image should
be closed (like circle, rectangle, oval, or any other shapes as long
as kid can color and know clearly up to where to color)
4. Do not have too much drawing/lines in the picture. There should be
sufficient place for the kids to color.
5. Do not have too many small small areas like tiny cirlce, tiny
rectangle etc. Small kids cannot point the brush to very small areas
to color. They can only color big areas.
