FAQ
Is 1/4 inch graph paper good for students?
Yes. The spacing is large enough for handwriting and common graphing assignments.
Is 1/4 inch the same as 5mm graph paper?
No. A quarter inch is exactly 6.35mm, which is larger than 5mm. Keep the PDF at 100% scale, and measure four cells with a ruler: together they should span one inch (25.4mm).
