What Makes a Professional Crossword Book
Edit your crossword books after they are generated
Yes. Every book a creator page produces stays editable. Text is revised in the Manuscript Editor, interior pages are adjusted on a print-accurate canvas in the Interior Design Studio, and covers are edited layer by layer in the Cover Design Studio. Manual edits are included with every account; AI-powered actions inside the editors use credits.
- Included
Manuscript Editor
Revise the generated text chapter by chapter before it is typeset.
- Find and replace across the whole manuscript
- Clean paste from Word documents
- Undo/redo with keyboard shortcuts and a live word count
- Chapter, title and subtitle renames without regenerating
- Included
Interior Design Studio
Adjust interior pages on a canvas that mirrors the printed page.
- Live trim, bleed and safe-area guides for KDP trim sizes
- Move, resize and restyle text and image elements
- 100+ fonts and page-level layout controls
- Exports at 300 DPI in the trim size you chose
- Included
Cover Design Studio
Edit the front, spine and back of a generated cover as separate layers.
- Text, art and background layers stay individually editable
- Spine width follows page count and paper type
- Barcode and safe-zone overlays match KDP print templates
- Included
Importing your own files
Bring an existing PDF, image or manuscript into the editors.
- Imported PDF and image pages open as a locked base layer; the original stays flattened and you add editable elements on top
- Editable Import is a separate AI step that decomposes a finished cover or page into editable text and art layers
- Manuscripts (DOCX/text) import as editable chapters
- Uses credits
AI actions inside the editors
Optional generative tools you can invoke while editing.
- Magic Erase and Magic Expand
- Background removal and AI-generated elements
- Editable Import decomposition and per-page regeneration
- Each action shows its credit cost before it runs
Known limits
- A flattened import (PDF page or image) cannot be edited underneath: the base layer is locked and edits are added on top of it.
- Turning a flattened design into layers requires the separate Editable Import step, which uses credits and is best-effort on complex artwork.
