Codeword

Free printable codewords

Every letter of the alphabet has been swapped for a number from 1 to 26, and the same number always means the same letter. Three letters are given to start you off. The rest you deduce from the crossings — a strip of all twenty-six boxes runs along the bottom so you can cross letters off as you place them.

Printing these

Print at 100 %, not “fit to page” — “fit to page” shrinks the grid and the point size along with it. Ordinary paper is fine; matte holds pencil better than glossy. The answer sheet is a separate file so you can print the puzzles on their own.

Yours to print, as many times as you like. What you may do with these
