Lines on paper support structure for your ideas. White lines give support without distracting your eyes, and makes your writing and drawings stand out. It’s easy; dark lines distract, white lines don´t.

The background is tinted in a light grey tone which makes it less tiring for the eye than using a white paper. Dark supporting lines have the same contrast as the pen you write with and that creates a conflict in your brain. Take away the conflict and you’ve helped your brain by eliminating unnecessary distractions.

They do! When you copy or scan the Whitelines page the background and lines will disapear. Left is the pen stokes. You can automatically scan the paper with Whitelines free App.

It varies between products and countries. The standard for the European sized (A-format) products is 80 gsm for all soft cover products (WL100-105) and 100 gsm for the hard cover products (WL230-233). The standard for the U.S. products is 70 gsm. The standard for Japaneese products is 80 gsm.

In general, our paper has very little bleed-through but since we have products with 70-100 gsm paper it varies between the products. You can use watercolour, calligraphy etc. on our paper and you can find examples on Whitelines Instagram account under the high-light “Quality”.

You can share your note with any image processing app that you’ve installed on your phone such as Email, Instagram, Evernote, WhatsApp, Snapchat, Line etc.

The app is optimized for note taking and therefore has a feature of removing shadows. A larger coloured area can therefore be mistaken for being a shadow and automatically removed. Light colours that are too close to white will be removed together with the lines.

The resolution is connected to the quality of the camera on your phone. Higher camera quality result in a higher resolution of the scanned image.

Whitelines App will adjust color tone differences in the paper caused by bad light and shadows. It will also remove any background noise and present your note with a pure white background to enhance the result. Of course, all your fine details from both pens and pencils, will be entirely preserved.

The note will be adjusted sideways and in perspective to adjust images captured from an angle. This means all notes will be displayed as scanned perfectly flat and will always fill the screen.

The app supports the file formats PDF and PNG.
