Etsy is a file. The buyer wants a short themed pack they can print this afternoon, not a 120-page maze book with a new filename.
A Hand-drawn Maze page is looping ribbon corridors. No grid. No square cells. In a thumbnail that is the whole difference from another maze printable: it looks like a children’s activity tangle, not a ruled lattice. Hand-drawn Mazes is the generator. How the maze works is already written in How Hand-drawn Mazes Work.
This is not Oblique Mazes (a slanted square grid). It is not Maze Tile Set 3 (drawn tiles for Mazes 2D Tiles). Those are other products. A KDP Hand-drawn Maze book is a different listing: trim, page count, Look Inside. Same ribbons. Wrong file for Etsy.
Pack size is the product
A pack that sells as a printable is short and themed: kids sparse, a party set, or adult dense. One theme per ZIP. A leftover dump of every maze you ever generated is a book wearing the wrong listing.
Each maze is a pair: the tangle plus a drawn solution. Put the keys in the file and say so. Buyers of printables expect them. Hiding them looks unfinished.
Match the cover. Pictures at the ends (mouse and cheese, or whatever story you promised) belong on a kids pack. Bridges off belongs on the youngest set. Decoy openings and a dense braid belong on an adult listing. Do not put a four-opening tangle under a toddler thumbnail.
Say whether loops are on. Default loops mean more than one valid S→E route can exist; the printed solution shows one. If the listing implies a single answer, turn loops off and say so. That is a product contract, not a generate tip.
Puzzle Book Studio is the assembly step if you later want a bound book. Do not upload that book PDF as the Etsy pack.
The four-channel map is the product-form article. A TPT worksheet is one classroom page. This is the short themed download.
What the preview has to show
The first photo is a real ribbon tangle: corridors that pass over and under, S and E poking out, no cell grid behind them. A square maze in the thumbnail has already lost.
Page one matches the title. If you promised a party pack, page one is that party pack. Type and line weight survive home paper.
Online play is yes: Creative Interactive or Productivity Interactive. The seller publishes playable mazes — JSON/HTML for the WordPress plugin or a self-hosted player — to a site they already own. This listing is still the PDF. See the editions page. A default catalog is a menu of mazes. A finish-screen button is only there if you opted into a leveled game under Catalog Merge → Game Options.
Commercial rights for printables on Etsy are part of the Puzzle Maker Pro license as stated on the homepage. That is not a substitute for Etsy’s digital-product rules.
The whole point
An Etsy Hand-drawn Maze printable is a short ribbon-tangle pack with keys in the ZIP. Show the over/under in the thumbnail, pick one theme and one difficulty story, and leave the long interior for a book.
