Lined Paper Background Hd

[Alana Fekety]

Iam new to photoshop and want to make lined paper. (evenly spaced lines) I open a new doc- then make a new layer. First I make an even line with the line tool. Then I Control J to make several copies. I select the last layer and control T to transform. When I left click to drag on line to bring it down to the bottom so I can redistribute lines after- it just makes a huge filled in rectangle shape. Even when I skip the copies and just try to free transform the line to make an exact copy it makes a filled in rectangle shape. I hope this question makes sense.Thanks for any help.

There is not a horizontal line pattern among the default sets, so I quickly made one. Note, that if you have the background layer turned on when defining the pattern, it will make black lines on white on the same layer.

Something I have just learned is that if you adjust the pattern scale in Layer Styles, it will retain that scale if you then use the Paint Bucket tool set to Pattern to apply the pattern, but it does so as a Layer Style. It's not a tool I tend top use, but it's interesting all the same.

I had this same issue a while back. I found the various instructions kind of confusing so what I ended up doing was taking a picture of a piece of lined paper and inserting it into my document, adjusting the color and opacity as desired. That's what worked for me.

For quite a while now I've wanted to have lined paper (preferably ruled and indented) as my Evernote note background, mainly because staring at large white spaces on the screen when typing begins to hurt my eyes after a while - plus the lines make everything look that bit neater (in my opinion).

It's proved quite tricky and took a bit of repeated testing editing an image to get the spacing right. I've seen the request made for lined backgrounds a few times on here, and after achieving this following two days of playing about, I'd like to share how I did it for anybody who wants it.

Just a note that I use Evernote 3.2 on Mac (personal preference), but the following method works on the latest version too (you'll have to use the latest version to get the indent whichever version you use). You'll need to upload the image to your own or somebody else's server .

This should make the lines appear. Note that I use Arial 12pt, which allows for the correct spacing between the lines, though you may also get away with Arial 13 (though I haven't tested this). I've tested with Arial 12 to a depth of around 14,000 words, and it retains the spacing perfectly - it's potentially infinitie but I have no need to go beyond that word length.

A useful extension for some, but it is still in alpha stage. One should not be dependent on 1 font type & size only & one should be able to still insert images. Furthermore, the implementation is a bit convoluted, can it be simplified?

Agreed - it's far from ideal and will only suit those who aren't too adventurous with formatting, but it's the only way to do this that I'm aware of. Though I haven't tried it yet, I don't think images will be an issue - it'll be a trial and error case of trying a certain vertical height that retains the spacing.

However, I would like to be able to edit the line colours. I would like to put the header/title in the blank white space. Is there a way to do the document above without using the background jpg? The document is also multiple pages.

This code is based on code originally posted at -paper-with-latex-and-tikz.html. Basically, the site hosts a range of templates for creating all kinds of paper in TeX (both in US sizes and those used by everyone else). Squared, narrow-ruled, wide-ruled, Cornell, college, graph...

However, I've modified the code quite a bit for this answer so any errors are definitely mine! [In particular, any mess on account of the use of background is definitely mine as the original doesn't use that package in any way, shape or form.]

Obsidian has been a game-changer to keep track of things and jotting things down. I am just starting my PhD and reading through papers is a chore (I usually print them out and draw lines to help me read). If you have some hack to get ruled lines on a pdf, that would be a great help too!

If you would like most notes not to have either of these alternatives, and just trigger it occasionally, you could change the CSS slightly, and add a cssClass to the frontmatter of the note you want underlined.

To be having everything underlined is somewhat of an eyesore, and I thought other options to help keeping track of the current line. One idea which came to my attention is to increase the line-height. Then each line would separate a little from the next one, and I imagine it would be easier to keep track of the current line.

I am editing a drawing and when opened the file the viewport is not lined up with the paper space/ or white background. I normally just scale it but I feel like there is another way to get everything against the white background.I have attached a photo of what I am looking at.

Layout viewports are objects that display views of model space. You create, scale, and place them in paper space on a layout. in general Layouts just contain the VP itself and the title block ( with information ) .

The printable area of a drawing sheet is defined by the selected output device and is represented by the dashed line in a layout. the paper size and plot scale determine the size of the paper background .

Often times in teaching it is helpful to have a slide with a set background image such as handwriting lines or graph paper. Drawing the lines each time and locking them in place is tedious and time consuming. By choosing a background from the gallery time can be saved, and consistency ensured. To do this you simply click on the gallery button on the left side of the screen (the mountain and sky picture second from the top) and click on Backgrounds and Themes. You can scroll though the 139 choices of cute and interesting backgrounds, or you can search in the search bar for what you want (ex: handwriting) and choose backgrounds and themes. Then you choose your background and drag it onto your slide.

I think I can get rid of all the other noise easily but its just that when alot of the letters on the page are very small (in between the lines on the page) it really makes it hard to separate everything. In an ideal world I would like to just have a blank background with all of the written letters and symbols on it, and none of the noise and lines. I do not know if this is possible, but if anyone has an idea on how I can get closer to that I would be extremely grateful. The letters will always have whitespace separating them from another letter so a Complex text recognition algorithm would not be needed in this case if i manage to get all the noise gone. Thanks for your time!

It's a hard task to extract informations from images as noisy as your last binarized one.Basically, what you need, is a clever binarization algorithm. You could try using adaptiveThreshold() or Otsu's algorithm for example. The problem is, that your image has a very weak contrast. Having lines on your paper doesn't make it easier of course. Maybe by using a thicker pen, you could get rid of the lines with erode()

A great addition to the infinite canvas for freehand note taking and sketching, Concepts offers an elegant, customizable Lined Paper grid you can use to keep your notes tidy. From narrow rule for deep thoughts to wide, elementary-style lines just right for a child's handwriting practice, you can keep your note taking in perfect line.

3. Tap the Lined Paper icon again or tap Edit Grid to customize your lined paper. Choose from Narrow Ruled, Medium Ruled, Wide Ruled or Custom line presets. Wide Ruled is equivalent to Elementary school style lining, with a faint line centered between two darker lines.

4. Each preset at the top of the menu allows you to adjust its spacing, divisions, color and orientation. Once you change settings, it will change to a Custom line style. Choose a preset as a starting place, then customize it as you prefer.

Use the Spacing slider to increase or decrease the distance between lines. As with any field in the app, you can tap+hold the preset value to bring up a keyboard and type in a distance. Distance units correspond to the Units style you have set in the Settings menu.

You also have the option to change the color of your lines. The Automatic color setting will adapt to the background color of your canvas, so if you're using Darkprint, for example, the lines will lighten to accomodate. If you choose a custom color, it will remain that color regardless of paper background.

Finally, choose your paper orientation. Both landscape and portrait mode will remain in their orientation when you turn the iPad. That said, you can rotate the paper with your fingers and snap it into its alternate orientation at any time, or even treat it like a normal piece of paper and leave it slightly diagonal while you write.

Concepts' artboards are easy to set up and are scaled to real-life dimensions, so if you want to export and print your notes, all you have to do is set one up in the Settings menu. You can set it up at any time in your note taking process, scale your notes to the artboard, or even move the artboard around to capture just the notes you want. You can read all about working with the infinite canvas and artboards here.

To set up an artboard, head to Settings > Artboard and tap a field. Find your paper size from among the shortcuts above the keyboard or type it in (for example, US Paper > 8.5" x 11", or A Series > A4).

Back on the canvas, you'll see the artboard outline scaled to the dimensions you entered. Tap+hold+drag on the artboard boundary edge to drag it around your canvas. If your notes are too large or too small to fit inside the artboard, select them and scale them to size (read how to Select here). Selection is also a great way to edit or reorganize notes that have morphed or spread around the canvas.
