What 6 mm graph paper is good for
- Everyday notes.
- Hand-drawn function graphs.
- Planners and lists.
How many 6 mm squares fit on a page
Whole squares only, grid centered on the page. With a 10 mm (about 0.4 inch) margin and with no margin:
| Paper | 10 mm margin | No margin |
|---|---|---|
| Letter (8.5 × 11 in) | 32 × 43 = 1,376 | 35 × 46 = 1,610 |
| Legal (8.5 × 14 in) | 32 × 55 = 1,760 | 35 × 59 = 2,065 |
| Tabloid (11 × 17 in) | 43 × 68 = 2,924 | 46 × 71 = 3,266 |
| A4 (210 × 297 mm) | 31 × 46 = 1,426 | 35 × 49 = 1,715 |
| A3 (297 × 420 mm) | 46 × 66 = 3,036 | 49 × 70 = 3,430 |
| A5 (148 × 210 mm) | 21 × 31 = 651 | 24 × 35 = 840 |
With small squares, a thin line in a light color keeps the page from looking gray.
