Pages: 10 (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 American Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Magazine and peer-reviewed papers (checked 28 Oct 2026), and the sources are listed on each pack’s credits page. Dinosaur sizes and weights are estimates, and where scientists still disagree, such as why the Fighting Dinosaurs were fighting or how heavy Velociraptor was, the packs say so. Photos and historical paintings are public-domain or CC0 images from Wikimedia Commons; new drawings, puzzles and layouts are REALLYBYTE’s own work, and those drawings are simple schematics, not exact copies of fossils. Not endorsed by the Natural History Museum, the American Museum of Natural History or the Smithsonian. Not affiliated with the Jurassic Park films.
