Chinese and Japanese practice sheets

Print handwriting practice without an account. Each generator builds the PDF in your browser. The characters you type are not uploaded to make the sheet.

Pinyin uses four-line paper. Character practice uses a grid, one character per row, including kanji you type. The kana sheet is a separate row picker for the 46 basic hiragana or katakana. None of these sheets show stroke order.

Chinese

Use the pinyin sheet for tone-marked syllables. Use the copybook when the student writes characters. Blank grid paper is the calligraphy sheet.

Japanese

The kana sheet is built for gojūon practice. For kanji, type the characters into the copybook. That sheet prints the character for tracing; it does not animate strokes.

Hangul, early pen control, Latin name tracing, arithmetic and graph paper use the same A4 or Letter PDF export.

Questions

Do I need an account?

No. The sheets are free to generate. The PDF is built in your browser from the options on the page.

Which paper sizes can I print?

A4 and US Letter. Print at 100 percent (actual size). Scaling to fit the page changes the millimetre grid.

Can I print kanji with stroke order?

You can print the kanji, but not the stroke order. Type them into the character copybook. The sheet uses a standard Noto Sans glyph for tracing, not a school handwriting model.

Will the pinyin sheet turn 妈 into mā?

No. Type the pinyin yourself, including the tone mark. An empty box prints blank four-line paper.

Is my text uploaded?

No. The sheet is generated in the browser and your text is not uploaded to create it. Loading the page, a font for export, advertising or analytics can still use the network.
