you know... it goes "wide", then "college" -- is there anything smaller than college? If so, what is it called, and where can I purchase it? THanks.


editSo, i know now it is called Narrow Ruled. Where can I buy this cheap? Thanks! Omax has it for $2.50 for 100 sheets. What a rip!

you have to go to those art specialty stores. Sometimes its called engineers paper or something like that. I saw one with nice fine spacing on one side, and graph paper on the back.

I've got an program that lets you make your own grid paper and control the spacing between lines. I think it's possible to turn off the vertical lines so that it's similar to normal college rule paper.

College rule is small enough, I hate how so many notebooks are wide ruled. The lines are ridiculously large.

Just eat out one time less each month and you will save enough money to buy 2-3 packs of this stuff.

Medium ruled (or College ruled) paper has 9/32 in (7.1 mm) spacing between horizontal lines

Narrow ruled paper has 1/4 in (6.35 mm).

I prefer narrow ruled paper because i write small too.
its kinda hard to find, but i usually find it with the hard cover journal's type section. Medium ruled or commonly known as college ruled paper is not narrow enough for me.

Try unlined paper for a while. I switched over because of my differential equations class, and it's all I use now. It's especially great for math and science classes where things don't always fall on the same line or where you need to diagram things.
