Paper Template Generator

Go to generator!

With this template generator you can create your own paper style for your (digital) notebooks. It's easy to use and you can use your paper styles in any notebook app that supports PDF import.

Please notice, it's still WIP, so if you miss some functionality, there is a chance it will be implemented soon.

How to install

Single Use

1. Download PDF file
2. Send/move to iPad, if needed
3. Share file into GoodNotes ("Open in GoodNotes")

If you want to add templates as pages in existing notebook:

1. Open notebook in GoodNotes app
