Write at your own pace

Choose spacing that suits your writing

Line spacing affects how much room each row gives you. The 6 mm option fits more writing, while 8 or 9 mm gives larger handwriting more space. These are practical presets rather than a claim about one universal school standard.

Make and print your paper

  1. Match the page size and orientation to your printer.
  2. Choose 6, 7, 8, or 9 mm ruling, or enter a custom size.
  3. Add a left margin line if it helps organize notes.
  4. Print the downloaded PDF at Actual size or 100%.

Quick answers

Lined paper FAQ

What line spacing should I use?

Try 7 or 8 mm for general notes. Choose 6 mm for compact writing or 9 mm for more room. The live preview makes comparison easy.

Can I print on both sides?

Yes, if your printer supports duplex printing. Check the paper orientation and use Actual size so both sides keep the selected spacing.

Does changing to A4 alter my spacing?

No. GridKite keeps your physical line spacing and redraws the complete lines within the new page dimensions.
