Why dot grid
Dot grid paper gives you structure without lines in the way. Dots help you keep text straight, draw boxes and charts, and space out a page, but they almost disappear under your writing. It is the paper most bullet journals use.

Questions and answers
What dot spacing do bullet journals use?
Most use 5 mm between dots, the first option here.
Will the dots show up on any printer?
Yes; they are medium gray. If they print too light, use your printer's "best" quality setting.
