FAQ

What are the start dots for?

They mark where each stroke begins, so children do not have to decide where to put the pencil down. It builds correct stroke order and letter placement habits, and is common in handwriting programmes.

Why are the printed dimensions wrong?

If your print dialogue has "Fit to page" enabled or scaling below 100%, the whole grid is scaled down. Set scaling to 100% / "Actual size", and tick the calibration ruler in the generator, then measure the 5 cm mark with a ruler. PDF dimensions are locked in the file, so they are the safest option.

Does anything I type or upload get sent to a server?

No. Generation, preview and export all happen inside your browser. Nothing is uploaded and no account is needed.
