Questions
Can I add illustrations?
On the cover, yes: upload the image (if you hold the rights). Illustrations inside the text are not supported yet; for now the story is laid out with colour and type.
Does it work for school material?
Yes. Teachers use it for worksheets, lesson sequences and activity books.
Is the type big enough?
The children's style uses a rounded font at a larger size than the other styles.
