Printable millimetre graph paper

Millimetre paper has a 1 mm grid with stronger lines every 5 and 10 mm. It is used for science graphs, technical drawing, sewing patterns and scale plans.

  1. Choose the paper

    Graph, lined, music staff, millimetre, dot grid or tracing patterns.

  2. Adjust the details

    Square size or line spacing, colour, line weight, margins and A4, A5 or Letter.

  3. Download and print

    The PDF is vector-based, so lines stay crisp on any printer. You can download several pages at once.

When printing

  • choose 100% (“Actual size”), otherwise a millimetre won’t be a millimetre
  • the grid always ends on a whole centimetre
  • orange is the classic colour, but you can pick another
  • choose A3 for larger drawings
