Studios & Plans

What are the three Minada studios?+

Minada Studio is split into Learning Studio, Planner Studio, and Book Studio. Learning Studio is for worksheets, generators, exercise blocks, and classroom resources. Planner Studio is for planner pages, covers, tabs, dated systems, and reusable layouts. Book Studio is for print-ready book interiors, covers, trim sizes, and page systems.

Do I need a separate subscription for each studio?+

You can subscribe to one studio at a time or choose the All Studios Bundle. A single-studio subscription unlocks that studio only. The bundle unlocks Learning Studio, Planner Studio, and Book Studio together on the same account.

What is the difference between Personal and Creator?+

Personal is for your own teaching, tutoring, homeschool, household, classroom, or internal use. Creator includes the paid studio features plus commercial use rights for selling resources you create with Minada Studio.

What happens if I subscribe to more than one studio?+

Your account can access every studio included in your active subscriptions. If you have multiple studios or the bundle, use the dashboard and studio navigation to open the studio you want to work in.

Can I use Minada Studio for free?+

Yes. Free accounts can create, edit, and save projects in all three studios. In Learning Studio, the Free plan includes up to 30 saved worksheet pages in total, 5 worksheet generations per month, and 10 exports per month. Premium templates, folders, uploads, and generated answer keys require the matching paid studio plan.

What are the Free plan export limits?+

The monthly Free allowance is 10 exports. Free Learning Studio exports include Minada Studio attribution. In Planner Studio and Book Studio, a Free export includes only the first 10 project pages and carries a visible Minada Studio watermark. Personal and Creator plans for the matching studio unlock clean, full-project exports.

Learning Studio

What can I make in Learning Studio?+

Learning Studio is for printable worksheets, templates, generators, interactives, exercise blocks, academic tools, and classroom-ready resources.

What is the difference between templates and generators?+

Templates are ready-made designs you can open and edit. Generators build a new worksheet from your settings, such as topic, difficulty, page count, layout, and question type.

Can I edit a generated worksheet after it is created?+

Yes. Generated worksheets open in the canvas editor, so you can edit text, images, layout, page size, colors, page order, and export settings.

Can I make answer keys?+

Some Learning Studio generators support answer keys and teacher or parent guides. Generated answer keys require an active Personal or Creator plan for Learning Studio and appear only for generators that support them. Teacher or parent guide availability depends on the generator.

Do generated worksheets save to my account?+

Signed-in users can save worksheet projects to the dashboard, subject to their plan limits. Saved projects remain editable, so you can reopen, duplicate, and export them. Organizing Learning Studio worksheets into folders requires an active paid Learning Studio plan.

Planner & Book

What is Planner Studio for?+

Planner Studio is for printable planner products, including dated pages, undated pages, covers, tabs, dividers, trackers, spreads, and reusable layout systems.

What is Book Studio for?+

Book Studio is for print-ready book projects such as workbooks, journals, activity books, interiors, covers, trim-size setup, margins, gutters, bleed, and export-ready files.

Can I sell planners or books made in Minada Studio?+

Yes, if you have the matching Creator plan for that studio or the Creator bundle. Personal plans are for personal, classroom, homeschool, tutoring, or internal use only.

Can I use one project across different studios?+

Some editing tools are shared across studios, but each studio has its own workflow and product type. Use Learning Studio for worksheets, Planner Studio for planner products, and Book Studio for print-ready book projects.

Courses

What are Minada courses?+

Courses are short lessons that show how to use Minada Studio. If you get stuck or want to learn a workflow faster, start there first.

Are courses organized by studio?+

Yes. Some lessons apply to every studio, and others are specific to Learning Studio, Planner Studio, or Book Studio.

When should I use courses?+

Use courses when you are not sure where a tool is, how a workflow works, or which studio is best for the project you are making.

Do courses replace support?+

No. Courses teach the main workflows. If something is broken or account-specific, contact support.

Shop

How does the Shop work?+

The Shop is for one-time digital resource purchases. After checkout, purchased products appear in Account > My purchases with download controls.

Are Shop purchases the same as a subscription?+

No. Shop purchases are separate from studio subscriptions. Buying a shop product gives access to that product, but it does not unlock a full studio subscription.

Can I edit a shop product after purchase?+

When a product supports editable copies, you can open it as your personal copy and edit it without changing the original shop product.

Do I need a paid studio plan to use a product I bought?+

No. A valid purchased Shop product appears in My purchases with its available download and Edit copy options. The purchased copy can be used without a separate paid studio plan, but paid tools or unrelated projects outside that purchase still follow your current plan.

What if I bought something but cannot find it?+

Check Account > My purchases first. If it is still missing after checkout is complete, contact support with the email used at checkout.

Editing & Exports

Can I change paper size and format?+

Yes. The editor supports common print formats such as US Letter, A4, A5, Legal, and other studio-specific sizes when available.

Can I choose color or black-and-white?+

Yes. Worksheet and product exports can support color or black-and-white output depending on the project type and product settings.

Can I download as PDF, PNG, or JPEG?+

Yes. Available formats depend on the studio, page type, and export workflow. Minada Studio supports PDF and image exports, including PNG or JPEG where the selected workflow offers them. Free-plan attribution, watermark, page, and monthly export limits still apply.

Can I share a worksheet link?+

Yes. After saving a worksheet, you can enable a public sharing link. Anyone who has the link can view the shared worksheet; no Minada account is required. You can hide or show an available answer key, disable sharing, or revoke the old link and generate a new one.

Can I use Minada Studio on a phone or tablet?+

Yes. Minada Studio works in modern browsers on desktop, tablet, and mobile. Detailed layout editing is still easier on a larger screen.

Uploads

Can free users upload images or fonts?+

No. The Uploads menu is available only when the user has an active Personal or Creator plan for that studio. A paid subscription to one studio does not unlock uploads inside another studio.

How much upload storage is included?+

Personal includes 500 MB and Creator includes 1 GB for uploaded images and custom fonts combined. The storage allowance follows the active plan for the studio where you are working.

What happens to uploads if my subscription ends?+

If your account loses all paid upload access after a Personal or Creator subscription ends, uploaded images and custom fonts are kept for a 14-day grace period and then permanently deleted. Existing projects keep their file references, but deleted images will no longer display or export and deleted custom fonts may fall back to another font. Renew before the deletion deadline to cancel the scheduled deletion.

Can I delete my uploaded files myself?+

Yes. Paid users can manage uploaded images and fonts from the Uploads panel while upload access is active.

Billing & License

How is billing handled?+

Studio subscriptions and Shop payments are handled through Lemon Squeezy. You must sign in before starting a studio subscription checkout; after payment, the subscription is linked to that signed-in Minada account and access is updated from the payment confirmation.

Can I cancel a subscription?+

Yes. Open the billing portal from your Account page to cancel future renewals. A canceled subscription remains active until the end of its already-paid billing period. After it expires, that studio returns to Free access; if the account then has no paid upload access, the 14-day upload grace period begins.

Can I get a refund?+

Minada Studio subscriptions and Shop products provide immediate digital access and are generally non-refundable. You can cancel a subscription to stop future renewals. This does not limit any non-waivable remedy required by applicable consumer law; see the No-Refund Policy for full details.

Can I use resources in my classroom?+

Yes. Personal and Creator plans both allow your own classroom, tutoring, homeschool, household, and internal use.

Can I resell resources I make in Minada Studio?+

Only Creator plans include commercial use rights for selling resources you create. Creator sellers should customize the resource and make it meaningfully their own before selling.

Can I resell purchased shop packs or templates?+

No. Creator rights do not allow reselling purchased shop packs, templates, source files, or lightly edited copies as your own product. Shop products and templates are for use within your license, not redistribution.
