A quieter guide for notes and layouts
Dots mark the intersections without enclosing every cell. The spacing is measured from dot centre to dot centre.
A5 is provided for single-sheet notebook layouts. A dedicated imposed or double-sided booklet file is not part of this phase.

Questions
What is the dot spacing?
Adjacent dot centres are 5 mm apart in both directions.
Is the A5 file arranged for duplex printing?
No. It is a single A5 page; printer duplex and binding imposition depend on the notebook setup.
Will every printer render the dots equally?
No. Dot clarity varies by printer and settings, so check one sheet before a long run.
