Printable Adult Coloring Pages: Free PDF Downloads (3,000+)

Why download our adult coloring pages in PDF?

Unlike other coloring websites that only provide free single page downloads, we provide each book as one convenient PDF! This saves you time, hassle and stress.

Instead of having to select and download each page individually to print, you can access our books much faster. For example, if you wanted to print a free 50-page book that required you to download each page, you could save your time by 50 x in downloading them all at once with our PDF books!

How do printable adult coloring pages work?

Every website is different and will provide different options on how to print adult coloring pages in PDF. There are usually two options:

Option 1: Printable Coloring pages

This is usually the most common, as it allows websites to make money off more advertising displays and banners. With these websites, you have to view and download one page at a time; this usually requires you to load a new page and see more ads. This can be a slow and frustrating process. To save you time and stress, we have instead provided all our free printable Adult Coloring pages on this page below 🙂

Option 2: Printable Coloring books

Finding printable adult coloring books can be more difficult to come across due to their typical file sizes being much larger with a collection of pages. However, the main benefit of adult coloring books is that you are able to print a much larger selection of coloring pages without having to open and print each page at a time – saving you time and hassle in the process!

Should I print individual adult coloring pages or entire books?

Whether you should print individual pages or entire books comes down to a few main factors:

The device your printer is connected to

If you have to download these adult coloring files to print on mobile, we would recommend printable adult coloring pages as these file sizes are much smaller. You can also download the PDF coloring pages directly to your mobile if you prefer.

If you are using a desktop to print from, you should make sure to check the file sizes of these larger adult coloring books as these can take up space overtime. When this happens, you will have to delete them to make space for new downloads. However, by using our PDF viewer, this is not a problem as you will be able to access and print as many books and times as you'd like without it taking up space on your computer, tablet or mobile.

The themes of our adult coloring pages

If you'd like a variety of different themed adult coloring pages, then we would recommend printing individual pages. This will give you the best variety. However, if you'd like to color themes (such as flowers, animals, etc.), you'll be happy to know that we have a themed books like 50-page animal book, 50-page floral book and much more.

The file types of these pages or books

As most printable adult coloring pages are JPG files, they are usually universal enough that most devices can view and print. However, for situations when you are downloading books, these files can range from zipped folders to PDFs. Some websites will only provide JPGs which means you aren't able to download or print multiple pages at once. All our coloring pages are PDF and can be combined into a single PDF file for easy one-click printing and downloading.

Can I view and print these adult coloring book pages on my mobile?

Absolutely! If your mobile is connected to a printer, you can print or download in one easy PDF file or individual coloring pages. Since some mobile phones have a limited amount of storage, you can also view our PDF files and print without taking up space on your device storage!

Best settings to print adult coloring pages in PDF

When printing our coloring pages, your printer may not have the best settings. However, this is easy to change so below are some general recommendations to ensure high-quality results:

Paper Quality: Use a high-quality, thick, and smooth paper that is compatible with your printer. Many people prefer using heavier paper (around 70-90 lb or 170-216 gsm) to prevent bleed-through and provide a sturdy surface for coloring. If you are using coloring pencils, normal weighted printable paper is still suitable.

Print Quality: Select the highest print quality or resolution available on your printer settings. This will ensure that the lines and details on the coloring page are crisp and clear. This can be particularly true for coloring pages with curves or circles.

Paper Size: Choose the appropriate paper size for your coloring pages (e.g., letter, legal, A4). Try to have paper size match the size of the coloring page to avoid any cropping or resizing. However, if this isn't possible, you can pick the 'print to fit' option in your printer settings.

Page Orientation: Choose the page orientation (portrait or landscape) based on the orientation of the coloring page printable design.

Color Settings: Opt for the "High Quality" or "Photo Quality" color setting, as this will produce vibrant and accurate colors.

Scaling: Make sure to set the scaling option to "None" or "Actual Size" to ensure the adult coloring page is printed at its original dimensions.

Test Print

Before printing a large batch of coloring pages, we recommend you do a test print on a regular sheet of paper to ensure the optimal settings are to your liking. When you print from a PDF book, you are able to switch from 'Print all pages' to 'Print selected page.'

Please remember that printer settings can vary from one printer model to another. However, most of the above best practices are settings that will be available for most at home printers.
