About the dot grid paper

Dot grid paper marks only the corners of each square, so you get the guidance of a grid without lines running through your work. That makes it a favourite for bullet journals and sketchnotes, and genuinely useful in maths for drawing polygons, arrays and geoboard-style problems where the dots are the lattice points. The dots here sit a quarter of an inch apart.

Frequently asked questions

What is dot grid paper used for?

Bullet journalling and hand lettering, sketching and drafting, and in maths for plotting polygons, arrays and area problems on a lattice of points.

How far apart are the dots?

A quarter of an inch, matching standard 1/4 inch graph paper, so shapes drawn on either sheet are the same size.
