FAQ
These answers cover the common questions behind D&D battle-grid paper-format searches.
What is the difference between D&D grid A4 and Letter PDFs?
The intended 1-inch battle-grid scale stays the same, but the page format changes to match either A4 or US Letter paper. Choosing the matching format helps avoid scaling and keeps printing simpler.
Should I print the A4 battle grid on Letter paper?
It is better to use the Letter version on Letter paper. Printing the A4 PDF on Letter without matching the print setup can introduce scaling or awkward page fit issues.
Which D&D grid format is better for home printing?
Use the format that already matches your local printer workflow. A4 is usually better outside the US, while Letter is usually better for US home printers and office setups.
