Copy and Color Maker: Your Picture, Missing Cells, Then They Color
Drop your picture, hide some cells, and print a sheet they copy, then color. Kids animals, a holiday line, classroom objects, a brand mascot: the picture on the grid is the theme. Puzzle Maker Pro on your Windows PC splits that picture into a grid, prints some cells as clues, and leaves the rest blank. They copy the missing cells. Then they color.
Puzzle and Example prints the full picture and the partial grid on one page. The picture they copy is already there.
Puzzle and Example on one page. The full picture sits with the partial grid. They copy the blank cells, then color.

A Drawing-Practice Sheet They Can Finish with a Crayon
Drop one picture on a 3 by 5 grid and they have a page they can actually finish. You pick which cells keep the picture. They draw every blank. The kid looks at the printed cells, draws the blanks, then colors the picture they just finished.
A younger kid gets a page they can finish with a pencil and a crayon. Print a 3-by-5 copy-then-color page, then run the class set from the same picture list: one picture, crayons at the desk. A holiday listing gets a themed interior the shopper can point at in Look Inside.
Drop in pictures you already have, hit Create, and compile the sheets in Instant Puzzle Books. If you already publish in Puzzle Maker Pro, you already have the pictures and the book compile. This is the Creator that turns them into the copy-then-color interior.
Your Image Is the Theme. Swap the Pictures, New Listing.
Bring your own pictures. Drag them onto the Images tab, or start with the built-in Kids Animals pack and judge the sheet before you hunt for art.
Drop in pumpkin pictures and you have a Halloween listing. Swap classroom objects and you have a back-to-school pack. Swap a mascot outline and the sheet is yours. They copy that picture. They color that picture. Replace the image and the sheet is a new theme.
Name the sheet from the image file, or type a custom title for the image overlay.
The picture is the product. Kids Animals to start. Your holiday, classroom, or mascot art for the next listing.
Choose Which Cells Print. They Draw the Rest.
Hide a checkerboard of cells and the page is already a drawing lesson: half the picture is there, half is theirs. Hide every other row when you want a stripe to copy along. Show columns from the left when a younger hand needs a strip of the picture to hold onto. You set how many rows or columns show from that edge (default two). Random Squares shows a percent of cells (10 to 75, default 25). Or let Create pick a hide pattern at random: checkerboard, stripes, a strip from one edge, or a random percent of squares.
Need more than one missing-cell pattern from the same picture? Set Variations (1 to 10) and Create writes each mask as its own sheet. Entire List walks the whole picture list. When Entire List is off, Quantity (1 to 1000) is how many images this run writes; Variations still multiplies sheets from each picture. Random Order shuffles the list before Create.
Same picture, different missing cells. Checkerboard, stripes, or a strip from one edge.
Puzzle and Example on One Page, or Puzzle Only
Puzzle and Example is the default. The full picture and the partial grid share the page, so the model they copy is on the activity page. Put the partial on the top, bottom, left, or right (default bottom). Set the gap between them (0 to 2 inches). Align each half so the page matches the rest of the title.
Puzzle Only prints just the partial grid. They draw the missing parts from the clues on that grid. Need the full picture off the activity page? Puzzle Only for the sheets, Export Parts for the full-picture files you drop in the back as the key.
Optional help lines draw extra lines inside each clue cell, so a younger hand has more to follow. Leave them off for a cleaner page.
Default: full picture plus partial grid. Puzzle Only when you want the drawing without the example on the page. Help lines sit inside the cells when you turn them on.
Printable Copy and Color Sheets, Then a Book Interior
Load the pictures, lock the grid and the clue option, set Quantity (1 to 1000) or leave Entire List on, and Create. Instant Puzzle Books compiles those sheet files at your trim. Puzzle Book Studio can change settings and re-assemble that one set.
Getting Started with Copy and Color walks the Creator.
The files you ship: drawing-practice sheets from your pictures, compiled at the trim you already use.
Who This Is For
You already publish with Puzzle Maker Pro. Copy and Color is another Creator in the same app. Use the pictures you already keep, then drop the sheets into the Instant Puzzle Books compile you already run for the rest of the title.
Kids activity and KDP / Etsy publishers. If you have been buying PLR coloring interiors, or skipping drawing-practice because building a missing-cell sheet in a layout tool takes all afternoon, this is the change: your pictures, a grid, a clue mask, a page they can finish with a crayon. One-time license to sell the finished books, worksheets, and packs you make to your own readers and customers. Watermark-free files.
Teachers Pay Teachers and classroom packs. Print a 3 by 5 checkerboard for the room, then a from-the-side sheet that prints a strip of cells from one edge (you set how many). Same picture list, two clue patterns. Print the PNG, photocopy a class set, and keep the full picture on the page as the model.
