Pick a preset or make it your own. Your preview updates as you go.

Simple as that
1. Choose a paper type
2. Pick your spacing
3. Choose your paper
Orientation
4. Choose a minimum margin

Square grids use whole squares, so the actual margins may be slightly larger. No margin allows content to reach the edge; printers may clip it.

A PRACTICAL GUIDE

Make a useful graph paper sheet

Start with the classic square grid or choose a different paper type for your project.

    The default is ¼ inch. Use a smaller square for detailed diagrams or a larger one for handwriting and simple charts.

  2. 02
    Set up the page

    Choose the paper size, orientation, line colour and minimum margin. The preview updates as you change them.

  3. 03
    Download and print

    Download the PDF and print at “Actual size” or 100% with the matching paper size. Measure a square when accuracy matters.

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions and answers.

Helpful details before you print.

What is the difference between ¼ inch and 5 mm?+

¼ inch is 6.35 mm, so its squares are larger than 5 mm squares. Choose the size that fits your work.

Why are my margins larger than the setting?+

For square grids with a positive minimum margin, whole squares are centered on the page. The remaining space can make the actual margins larger.

Can I print right to the edge?+

The no-margin setting extends the design to the page edge, but many printers cannot print there and may clip it.
