Large / Bold Graph Paper

Hey Folks,
  One of the O&M listers suggested that I create some bold Graph paper, so I did by just using the Table function in Microsoft Word.
I have created a three page document, with each the cells on page one being 1/4 inch, two being .4 inch and three 1/2 inch.  One can manipulate the size of the squares and the thickness of the lines from the Table Properties diologue box. You can download it HERE   (Either right-click to
download it to your hard-drive or left-click to see it in your browser)

Here is how you can manipulate the size of the cells in the graph paper:
  • From the table menu select:  select/table
  • Then from table menu select: Table Prperties, and the Table Properties dialogue box opens up
  • To adjust the thickness of the lines, click the "Table " tab at top and click the "borders and shading" button at the bottom and when that dialogue box opens up, adjust the width of line with the "width" drop-down box
  • To adjust the size of the boxes, you have to first click the "row" tab,  check the  "specify height" box and put in your decimal value (.25 = 1/4 inch, .5 = 1/2 inch, etc.).  Then do the same in the "column" tab.  NOTE: If  for example with the document I have created, if you want  to increase the size of the squares on page one from 1/4" to say .3",  you will have to delete some of the columns to the right(Table/delet/columns) , in order for the columns to fit  and when you make the rows .3, some rows will jump to next page and you will have to delete them as well.
