Recipe Page Options
Click each dot or heading below for more info.
Subcategories
You can group recipes into subcategories within each divider category (e.g., the "Desserts" category may include "Cakes," "Pies," "Puddings," "Trifles," etc.). Arrange recipes within subcategories in the order you want them to be printed. Subcategory headings will appear centered at the beginning of these recipes, as well as in the index section. Choose FREE subcategories when you create your online account. Subcategories may add to your page count.
Recipe Notes
Recipe notes are non-recipe content specific to a recipe. Nutritional info, suggested uses, history, etc., help personalize your cookbook. Recipe notes are printed after directions. Choose FREE recipe notes when you create your online account. Recipe notes may add to your page count.
Examples:
Note: This recipe has been in the family for 100 years.
Note: One serving contains 300 calories and 10g fat.
Note: A bowl of this soup on a chilly fall evening is all the reason I need to grow leeks in the garden. Leeks are easy to grow and frost hardy.
Recipe Fillers
FREE recipe fillers (artwork or text not recipe specific) are offered as a way to fill the bottom of pages where space allows. This option is available only with non-continued recipes. Choose from our 9 stock sets, ranging from artwork to quotes, or submit your own custom fillers. See samples of each set at the bottom of this page.
- Custom text fillers are limited to four lines (about 200 characters).
- Custom artwork fillers cannot be more than 1" in height. We will enlarge or reduce as necessary. Line art prints best. Submit line art as black and white only (no greyscale or color).
- Photos or images with screens are not allowed on recipe pages.
Contributor Name
With each contributor name, two extra lines (title, town, dept., etc.) may be included FREE. For duplicate recipes, submit one recipe and include additional contributor names (up to 3 lines).
Non-Continued Recipes
Our standard practice is to print recipes continuously from page to page, breaking them as needed. Non-continued printing does not split recipes from page to page. This option is FREE and will add to your page count.
Every cookbook includes a Recipe Index.
