Whitelines Spiral Wire Bound Graph Ruled Notebooks, Premium 20# Gray Paper, 11" x 8.5" 70 Sheets, Makes Your Notes Stand Out and Links Them To The Digital World, Proudly Made in USA (Pack of 12)

It's expensive for graph paper, yes, but it's not just any graph paper. I find that when I use pencil on regular graph paper, the grid lines are far darker and more obvious than my writing. It's distracting while I'm working, and it's distracting when looking at the final product. Whitelines paper, with its gentle white-on-gray look, allows me to keep text and equations aligned while still being able to sketch out nice-looking tables and graphs as needed. It's closer to writing on a blank sheet of paper, but with handy guidelines available if you need them.The funny part is that I almost never use the app for scanning it; I don't buy it for the Link feature/app, although it is certainly convenient when I just want to snap a photo and send it off. And don't get me wrong, I'd prefer it to be cheaper, but I've never found anyone who manufactures paper quite like this. They used to make PDFs available so you could print your own, but sadly those are no longer available. (Still, given how much toner costs, I suspect that this is -still- cheaper than trying to print your own!)Hands-down, it's my favorite engineering pad.

I absolutely love these notebooks. There work so well and you can upload them to the app. It lets me take organized notes. The graphing is light enough so you can still read the text you are writing. The perfect notebook, lightweight and easy. Would 100% recommend these.

It's essentially high quality paper for a quite effective note-taking system. The paper is heavy (20 lb), two sided, and erases cleanly. I have had an issue with bleed-through so I tend to just use pencil with this paper to maximize value by using both sides. When you write your notes and then use the (completely free) app to scan them, you can export them to a .pdf. This is where the magic happens as the file it creates looks like you free-handed professional looking notes, schematics, sketches, etc. Because it has the little QR symbols in the corners of the pages, the app does all the work so you never get a bad scan from your phone. It is that clean looking document this app makes that you archive in OneNote or your collection of .pdf s.Basically the expense (average 15 cents a sheet) and coolness of this system makes you want to do better when you make your notes, by planning them out and not wasting paper, so there is a learning enhancement right there.

I have been absolutely loving using this paper, but halfway through my pad, the pages are now misprinted upside-down and not lined up correctly so that the edges are for the scanning part is cut off. This was really disappointing to look through the entire thing to see the rest of the pages are all like this.

I'll keep this short but I have always struggled to stick to ONE notebook because i'm super picky and was going back and forth between that traditional notebook lined paper that I hate, blank white printer paper that I always lost and an ipad/apple pencil notes which I didn't end up liking as much as paper.I don't even use the app, but this is the only notebook i've actually stuck to and used every page of. The lines are faint enough so that they guide you to write straight but aren't distracting and you can read back your notes as easily and clearly as a blank sheet of paper.I don't know how to describe the issue I have with traditional lined or graph paper to someone who doesn't have a problem using it, but If you have ADHD and find the dark lined paper distracting, or if you're a med student who needs to re-read your notes and make it easier to find stuff, OR if you're unfortunate enough to be both a med student who has ADD like me, then this notebook is for you.

This was amazing! Amazing quality and plenty of papers

I use this paper exclusively for math and engineering course lectures, I use a lower-end engineering paper for homework. Some may believe it's a bit pricey when compared to the conventional yellow engineering pads. However, I found it advantageous that the back side of this paper is just the same as the front. Specifically: the conventional yellow engineering papers backside is typically a hard and darkened grid and practically unusable, so you're left to using the front sheet only, which is wasteful. I scan/archive all my notes/lectures at the end of the semester using a ScanSnap device, and the final scan appears as a white sheet (see attached images), which is a very clean look. I have not used the suggested App for Whitelines for archiving, so I cannot attest to its quality or utility. In short, I highly recommend for those of you who appreciate good paper and are anal retentive like myself.

The paper itself is very nice: easy on the eyes, had good confrast, and the app works well.However, it was sent in a bubble mailer (which is ridiculous for a $13 pad of paper) and it’s bent pretty pad, making it almost useless as a pad, and most pages have permanent indentions. I will update is there is a resolution.
