Printable Grid Paper - Graphing Paper

Grid paper is simply a page covered with a continuous square grid. It is often called "quadrille paper" or "quad paper." The squares usually have a specific size such as 1/2 inch, 1/4 inch or 1/8 inch - which gives the paper a name such as "1/2 Inch Grid Paper." No axes are drawn on grid paper. This type of paper is often used for student graphing assignments where the teacher gives students the responsibility of determining scale and drawing the axes.

Grid paper is the type of graph paper most often used for art and drawing projects. It is used for creating floor plans, designing web pages, creating cross-stitch patterns, planning construction projects and many other purposes. Many people who use it believe that a quick pencil and paper sketch can be created in a fraction of the time required to make the same sketch with a computer program. This works well for a single draft, but if multiple refining drafts are required, then the computer program begins to have an advantage.
