Choose dotted letters for the classic trace-over-the-dots exercise, hollow outlines to trace inside, a light gray fill, or a bold solid example on the first row followed by traceable copies below. Set a trace colour, or switch on rainbow rows so each line is a different colour — a favourite for keeping young writers engaged. A print font suits early writers; the cursive font supports joined-up handwriting practice. ### From guided tracing to independent writing Proper handwriting worksheets use guide lines — a top line, a dashed midline, and a solid baseline — so children learn correct letter height and proportion, and you can toggle them on with one tap. Add a green start dot to show where each letter begins, then add blank practice rows after the traced examples so learners try it on their own. Set the letter case to match how you teach names, scale the letters up for little hands, and pick how many rows fit the page. ### Multi-page, any size, print or download Enter a whole spelling list and the worksheet automatically flows across as many pages as it needs — the PDF and Print options include every page, with a mirrored, print-ready layout. Choose A4 or US Letter in portrait or landscape to match your printer, add a name-and-date header, and export a multi-page PDF or a PNG of the current page. Everything is generated locally, so nothing is uploaded. ## FAQ ### How do I make a name tracing worksheet?
