How many lines fit on one handwriting page?
Each page is a fixed 800 by 1131 pixel image, very close to the proportions of A4. Writing starts 70 pixels from the left edge, wraps once a line would pass 680 pixels, and sits on lines spaced 38 pixels apart. That gives every page room for 26 lines, and blank lines between paragraphs count toward the 26.
If your text wraps to 60 lines, you get three pages: 26 lines on page 1, 26 on page 2 and 8 on page 3. The size slider (18 to 40, default 26) scales the letters while the line spacing stays at 38 pixels. A larger size fits fewer words per line, so the same text takes more lines and can spill onto an extra page.
How do the pen styles, inks and paper options differ?
Neat cursive uses the Caveat font, Casual print uses Shadows Into Light and Messy realistic uses Homemade Apple, all loaded from Google Fonts when the page opens. If those fonts are blocked, for example by a network filter, the page falls back to your system's cursive font and the three styles look alike. Ink comes in blue, black or red.
Ruled paper draws pale blue lines under the writing and a pink margin line on the left; with it off you get a plain off-white page. Each line of text is shifted sideways by up to 2 pixels in a fixed pattern that repeats every five lines, so the same text always produces the same image. While the text box is empty, the page shows a sample sentence, and downloading at that point saves the sample.
What should you check before printing or submitting the pages?
Printed on A4, an 800-pixel-wide page works out to about 97 pixels per inch, well below the 300 commonly used for print, so letters may look soft on paper. Long unbroken strings such as URLs are never split, so one wider than the writing area runs into the right margin and, if long enough, off the page. Extra spaces and indentation are dropped, while blank lines are kept.
The fonts cover English letters. Hindi and other scripts they lack are drawn in a fallback system font and will not look handwritten. Each page downloads on its own as handwriting-page-1.png, handwriting-page-2.png and so on. To hand in one file, add the PNGs in order to the JPG to PDF Converter, which accepts PNG images and places each one on its own page.
