Questions
How many squares per inch does 1/2 inch graph paper have?
Two squares per inch in each direction, so a Letter sheet holds a 4 by 5 inch usable grid at the default half-inch margin.
When is 1/2 inch graph paper better than 1/4 inch?
Whenever the squares need to hold something. Half-inch squares fit a written digit, a stitch symbol, or a labelled room, while quarter-inch squares suit dense plotting.
Should I print 1/2 inch graph paper at actual size?
Yes. Use actual size or 100 percent scale so the half-inch spacing stays accurate, which matters when the grid is used for measuring.
