The usable dot grid
drawlater has not yet counted the grid on a real copy, so the editor starts from an estimate: 28 × 41 dots at 5 mm spacing. Dot counts and margins vary, so check yours before you draw.
- Count the dots in one row, including the first and last dot.
- Count the rows from the top dot to the bottom dot.
- Measure from each paper edge to the nearest dot: top, bottom, inner and outer.
- Enter the numbers under Notebook settings in the editor.

Why plan before you draw
A layout from a photo was drawn for someone else’s grid. In the Midori MD Notebook A5 it may run out of room or leave an awkward gap. drawlater places every box on a dot, shows measurements in dots and millimetres, and exports an actual-size PDF stencil you can print on A4 and trace.
