FAQ

Solid or dashed paths?

Dashed or dotted suits beginners: the child follows the guide but still forms the stroke. Move to solid for copying, then to blank rows for independent work.

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.
