Paper Maker

Read full description

Paper Maker makes the paper. You choose the size, the margins, the grid and the header, watch it redraw as you adjust, and export a high-resolution PDF you can write on in GoodNotes, Notability, or anything else that opens a PDF. Label sheets print straight from the app. WHAT YOU CAN BUILD • Ruled, dotted and square grid pages, with spacing and line weight you set • Cornell note pages with a cue column and summary band • Weekly spreads and monthly calendars that are correct for a real month — leap years and your own first day of the week included • Daily time-blocked pages • Any page size: A4, A5, Letter, or your own custom dimensions LABELS (NEW) • Address labels, name stickers and file labels, printed at true size from the app • Pick a Letter sheet layout (5160, 5163, 5167), or type in the label size, count and margins in mm for any other sheet • Print one alignment test, then nudge until it lines up. The nudge is saved per printer and used only when the app prints (a shared PDF is never shifted) • Skip the labels you already used on a half-used sheet • The same text on every label, or a pasted list, one entry per label (up to 4 lines each) PRESETS Save a preset, come back to it later, adjust one number, export again. PRIVACY Everything is computed and drawn on your device. There is no account and no server. We collect nothing. The app sends no data out on its own; sharing a PDF or printing happens only when you do it. No subscription. No advertising. No analytics. No tracking. Pay once.
