About GridPro
GridPro is a sophisticated utility which allows you to create a wide variety
of different sorts of grid and pattern very easily. Objects created with
GridPro can be printed as they are or they can used as components of
documents created in other packages. Grids can range from the very simple to
the extremely sophisticated and any number of grids can be created on a
single sheet which can be as small as A5 or as large as 12A0 (although
printing on 32000 sheets of A4 could be a trifle tricky).
GridPro will appeal to the primary school teacher who wishes to create grids
and patterns to assist with children’s mathematical investigations, students
in secondary schools and colleges, and all those in the ‘real world’ who
need grid sheets tailor made to suit their special requirements.
GridPro offers a number of advantages over commercially-produced printed
sheets
You can produce grid sheets as and when you need them. No more searching
through drawers and cupboards, over-ordering to ‘be on the safe side’, or
waiting for orders to be delivered.
Commercially-produced grid sheets, especially those for which there is
little demand, can be expensive.
Grid sheets matching your particular requirements may not be produced
commercially.
Your designs can be created to fit onto virtually any size of paper.
Grids can be exported to other applications where, for example, captions may
be added or the grid may be incorporated into another document.
Older students can design and create grids for their own use.
Line colours and thicknesses can be tailored to specific requirements.
If printed in black or dark greys, grids can be photocopied.
If you have a colour printer, you can print grids in any colours.
