Modified Graph Paper - Black & White - Black/Greyed

Post by lFlapjackl »

I made this with a lot of patience. I kept the same amount of squares so there shouldn't be any issues.

Using Fit/Shrink to Printable area has best results when keeping aspect ratio for PDF/PNG. This allows the image to use the most space without distortion.

This looks great. Thank you! A great alternative for us low on ink :D

EDIT: There's a small problem, though- you should make the actual grid a bit greyed out, so we can see more properly where we draw. Will really appreciate if you do that!

Nice job. One thing to note though. When I designed the original graph paper, I did those black and white bars around the grid to give an option for two different "resolutions". You have the option of doing 1x1 cells or 2x2 cells. Small thing and totally up to you if you want to fix it.

Looks much better now in V2.

Those look fantastic, but when he mentioned graying out the grid I'm fairly certain he meant the lines not the background. It's good to not have pure black lines so you can trace over them with black and see what you've written.

Alright, I have changed the grid lines to what I think is good.

Nice stuff! :)

If instead of a pdf you save it as an image, you can use something like imgur to do the hosting for you. It's a pretty nifty service: doesn't cost a dime and it is completely hassle free.

I have updated my original post to add the black/grey lines. I have included the choice of a PNG or the PDF. PNG is the original image I was editing. If you require a change in color, you can let me know. Changing the lines is a simple fix.
