Printable graph paper / 1/2 inch grid
1/2 inch graph paper (printable)
Two squares to the inch: roomy enough for handwriting in each square, small enough to fit a full page of working.
What it’s good for
Elementary maths, handwriting grids, and planning garden beds at 1/2 in = 1 ft.
Every option above can be changed: swap Letter for A4, change the line colour to a pale blue that photocopies faintly, or turn on landscape. The PDF is rebuilt instantly in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
Prefer to draw on screen? The online graph paper board has the same grids with markers and snapping lines.
Questions people ask
How many 1/2 inch squares fit on a Letter page?
With a 0.4 inch margin the grid is 15 squares across and 20 down. The preview counter updates as you change size or margin.
How do I print it at the correct size?
Choose “Actual size” or 100% scale in the print dialog. “Fit to page” shrinks the grid by a few percent.
