Editing a Children's Book

Your go-to guide for everything Chaptered.io — FAQs made simple.

No, once the book has been created, the photos used by the AI cannot be adjusted. That is why it is important to choose clear, good-quality photos beforehand, in which one person is clearly recognizable.

No, unfortunately it’s not possible to add extra characters to a book that has already been created. The character composition is determined during the initial generation process of the story and illustrations. That’s why it’s important to carefully consider which and how many characters you want to include in the story when creating the book.

No, once the book has been generated with a specific illustration style, this style cannot be changed for that book. The AI creates the illustrations integrally based on the chosen style. If you wish for a different illustration style, you will need to create a new book and select the new style then.

It can happen that the AI makes unexpected choices when creating illustrations. Via the "edit book" option, you can adjust the image, after which the AI will make a new attempt to create a better illustration. If the problem persists, we recommend adjusting the accompanying text. This gives the AI new information to create a suitable illustration, which increases the chance of a better result.

It can happen that the AI-generated characters in the illustrations do not perfectly match the uploaded photo. AI technology, especially with the artistic styles we use for children's books, interprets a photo and converts it into an illustration, which is not always an exact copy. The illustrations should, however, give a recognizable indication of the person. If you find that the resemblance is lacking, you can try to refresh the relevant illustrations via the "edit book" option. The AI will then make a new attempt. Sometimes it can also help to slightly adjust the accompanying text on that page to give the AI new context.

Sometimes our AI may make a mistake when generating an illustration, such as getting the number of characters wrong or how someone looks. If you notice, for example, that there’s an extra person, someone is missing, or a character appears who doesn’t belong in the story, we recommend using the "edit book" option to generate a new image for that page. This often fixes the issue right away. If it continues, you can also try adjusting the text on that page slightly to give the AI new context for a better result.

No, you cannot manually adjust the size or position of the text. The font size is automatically adjusted based on how much text is on each page; more text results in a smaller font. The position of the text, especially on the cover, is fixed in the design. What you can customize is the font style. Through the “Edit Book” option you can choose from different fonts to change the look of your book.

You can adjust the images in your book for up to 3 months after the original creation date. This is because generating new images depends on the uploaded photos, which are deleted from our servers after this 3‑month period. Once the photos are deleted, no new images based on them can be created. Other elements of your book, such as the text and fonts, can still be edited after this period.

No, you edit your personalized book yourself using the editing options available in your account. Our platform is designed to give you full control over the changes to both the text and the illustrations, so the final result is exactly how you want it. We do not offer a manual editing service by our team.
