Pages: 11 (including cover and credits). Sizes: A4 (210 × 297 mm) and US Letter (8.5 × 11 in), both PDFs included in one zip.

Printing: Print at 100% / actual size on A4 or US Letter. Inside pages use light backgrounds and print well in black and white; covers are dark, so start from page 2 to save ink.

Every fact is checked against the Natural History Museum (London), the Smithsonian and peer-reviewed papers, plus official state sources for the state-symbol facts (checked 27 Oct 2026), and the sources are listed on each pack’s credits page. Dinosaur sizes are estimates, and where scientists still disagree, such as whether Torosaurus was a grown-up Triceratops or what the frill was for, the packs say so. Photos and paintings are public-domain or CC0 images from Wikimedia Commons; drawings, puzzles and layouts are REALLYBYTE’s own work, and the drawings are simple schematics, not exact copies of fossils. Not endorsed by the Natural History Museum or the Smithsonian.

Licence: personal and single-classroom use. You may print as many copies as you need for your own family or your own class, and share it with your class through a password-protected platform. Please don’t resell, re-upload or share it publicly. For school-wide use, please email info@reallybyte.com.
