Print-ready by design
The interactive controls disappear in print view, leaving the crossword grid and clue list. Browser print-to-PDF makes it easy to save a copy for a lesson, activity folder, or quiet puzzle time.
Use a solution as an answer key
Keep the puzzle unsolved for learners, then use Reveal all before printing a second copy as an answer key. The generated seed lets you recreate the same grid later.
