Dot Grid Paper
The paper inside most bullet journals: a grid of small dots, 5 mm apart, that keeps writing and drawings straight without lines getting in the way. Choose the spacing, dot size and paper size.

How to print dot grid paper
- Choose the dot spacing. 5 mm is the bullet journal standard.
- Pick a dot size and colour: small grey dots fade into the background once you write over them.
- Set how many pages you want, download the PDF and print at 100%.
What’s on the page
Dots sit exactly on the grid points and are drawn as round vector dots, so they print as clean circles at any resolution. The grid is centred inside your margins with whole spaces all round.
Questions
What dot spacing do bullet journals use?
5 mm between dots is the standard in most dotted notebooks. 7 mm gives larger handwriting more room, and 1/4 inch (6.35 mm) is a common US alternative.
How do I print dot grid paper for an A5 journal?
Choose A5 if your printer takes A5 paper. Otherwise print on A4 or Letter and trim the sheets, or keep them full size in a ring binder.
The dots are too faint on my printer. What can I do?
Choose a larger dot size, or grey or black instead of light grey. Printing at a higher quality setting also helps small dots come out solid.
How do I print it at the right size?
Choose “Actual size” or 100% in the print dialog, not “Fit to page”, and load the same paper size as the PDF. Then a 1/4 inch square measures exactly 1/4 inch.
Is it free?
Yes. Every paper is free to make, download and print as often as you like, with no account and no watermark.
