Every practice box is a true square. Field mode adds center lines; rice mode adds both diagonals for additional stroke guidance.

  2. Select the paper size, orientation, units, margins, colors, and line weight.
  3. Review the live preview and correct any validation warning.
  4. Download vector PDF or SVG, create a 150/300 DPI PNG, or print from the browser.

Accurate printing

PDF and SVG retain vector geometry. For physical measurements, print at Actual size or 100% and turn off Fit, Shrink, or Scale to page. Use the first page as a measurement check when printer drivers add non-printable margins.
