Frequently asked questions
Is the word search maker free?
Yes. Create and download as many printable word searches as you like, free, with no account and no watermark.
Can I print it or share it?
The download is a standard PDF sized for US Letter or A4. Print it, email it, or attach it anywhere. An answer key page is included by default.
How many words can I add?
As many as fit your grid. If a word is too long or the grid is full, we tell you which words didn't fit so you can enlarge the grid.
Do you store my words?
No. The puzzle is built entirely in your browser. Your last list is saved only on your own device so it's there next time. Nothing is uploaded.
Can I make the puzzle harder or easier?
Yes. Use the Easy, Medium, and Hard presets, or adjust the grid size and toggle diagonal and backwards words yourself.
