Pixel grid questions
FAQ
What grid size is best for pixel art on A4 paper?
16x16 is the safest starting point for classic game sprites. Use 8x8 for beginner exercises, 24x24 or 32x32 for more detail, and 64x64 for fine work with a sharp pencil or pen.
Can I print this at the exact grid size?
Yes. Open the PDF and print at Actual Size or 100% scale. Avoid Fit to Page because it can shrink the grid.
Which download format should I use?
Use PDF for true-size printing, PNG for a high-resolution image, and SVG when you want a scalable grid that can be edited in vector software.
Do you have pixel art paper in US Letter or larger sizes?
Yes. The full pixel art paper collection includes A2, A3, A4, Legal, Letter, Poster, and Tabloid downloads in the same five grid sizes.
