Frequently asked questions

How do I print grid paper at the correct size?+

Download the PDF and print it at 100% (turn off “fit to page” or “shrink to fit”). The grid is drawn as vectors at exact physical size, so a 1 cm square measures 1 cm on paper.

What grid sizes are available?+

5 mm, 1 cm, 1/4 inch and 1/2 inch, on A4, Letter, A3 or Legal paper.

Can I get dot grid or isometric paper?+

Yes. Switch the grid type to dotted for bullet-journal dot grid, or isometric for technical and 3D sketching.

Do I need to upload anything?+

No. The grid paper is generated entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded.
