Graph Paper Printed True to Size

Squared paper is a measuring tool: it is only useful if its squares are the size they claim. Dr Buxton of England patented paper printed with a coordinate grid in 1794. Here two A4 sheets are drawn in millimetres, a 5 mm grid and a 1 mm grid, ready to print; the catch is the printer, which shrinks pages unless told not to.
