About the wide ruled paper
Wide ruled paper (sometimes called legal ruled) spaces its lines about 8.7 mm apart, giving around 27 lines to a US Letter page. The extra room suits elementary and middle-school students whose handwriting is still large, and anyone who prefers space between lines for annotation. It is the default ruling on most American school notebooks.
