Dot grid paper to print

How to use a dot grid
A lattice of faint dots, 5 mm apart, that guides writing, tables and sketches without printed lines. The standard page of a bullet journal.
Step by step
- 1Use the dots as corners, not lines. Anchor letters, boxes and lines to the dots. They keep your work square while staying almost invisible.
- 2Rule your own layout. Draw a header, a habit grid or a weekly log by joining dots. The same page becomes a planner, a tracker or a sketchpad.
- 3Keep the margin clear. Leave the outer dots free so nothing you draw runs into the binding when the page is bound.
- Dots that disappear
- The dots print small (about 0.9 pt) and mid grey, so they guide the pen without showing through your finished layout.
- Good for
- Bullet journalling, hand-drawn planners, sketching and note-taking.
