2. Pick your spacing
3. Choose your paper
Orientation
4. Choose a minimum margin

GOOD TO KNOW

Questions and answers.

Helpful details before you print.

Is A4 the same as US Letter?+

No. A4 is 210 × 297 mm; US Letter is 8.5 × 11 inches. Choose the size loaded in your printer.

Does the A4 page have to use 5 mm squares?+

No. The starting grid is 5 mm, but you can choose another spacing.

Why is the grid not flush with the paper edge?+

The minimum margin leaves space around the grid. With a positive margin, whole squares are centered and the actual margin may be larger.
