About this 10 squares per inch graph paper
This paper splits every inch into ten small squares, with a darker line at each full inch. You can read tenths of an inch straight off the page, which is why it is popular for engineering and statistics.
Use it when 1/4 inch squares are too coarse – detailed data plots, lab graphs or anything that needs a bit more precision.
What it’s good for
- Detailed data plots and lab graphs
- Engineering and technical sketches
- Statistics homework
- Electronics and PCB layouts
How to print it
Pick a size above and open the PDF. In the print dialog choose the same paper size and set the scale to 100% (Actual size), so the grid comes out at exactly 10 squares per inch, bold line every inch.
Questions
Why is every tenth line darker?
The darker lines mark whole inches, so you can count long distances without counting every small square.
Is there a metric version?
For metric work, try the 5mm or 1 cm graph paper.
