Make your first PDF
- Open Paper Maker and pick a layout: lined, graph, dot grid, or Cornell.

- Tap Save PDF. The share sheet opens so you can print it, save it to Files, or send it to a notes app.
Pick a page size
Paper Maker supports three sizes: Note App 4:3, sized to fill the screen in iPad note-taking apps, plus standard A4 and US Letter for printing. Switch sizes any time by tapping Edit paper.
The four layouts
Lined paper for regular handwriting. Graph paper for grids and diagrams. Dot grid for bullet journals and sketching. Cornell for note-taking, with a cue column on the side and a summary row at the bottom. Every layout follows the spacing and size you choose.
Save, print, or send it anywhere
When your PDF is ready, tap Save PDF to open the share sheet. From there, choose Print to send it to a printer, Save to Files to keep a copy on your device or in iCloud Drive, or open it directly in a notes app to write on it. It's a normal PDF, so it works wherever PDFs work.
Completely free
Paper Maker is free, with no purchases, no subscriptions, and no ads. Every layout, every page size, and unlimited PDFs are there from the first time you open it.
