Can I make one for the whole class?

Yes: one name to a line. Each name gets its rows, with the name in dark first and dotted after, and an empty row to try it alone.

Should the first letter be a capital?

Type it as the child should write it: a capital first and small letters after is what most schools teach for names. Typing it all in capitals gives capitals.

The name is long. Will it fit?

A long name is set once to a row instead of repeated, and one too wide for the row makes the whole sheet a size smaller, lines included, so it still fits. Landscape paper keeps it larger.

Does it work for names with accents?

Yes — é, ñ, ü, ç, ş, ğ and the other Latin letters are in every handwriting offered.

How it works
