Hi I want to recreate worksheets similar to this- for practicing writing. I am very unsure as how to go about it. I want to use the exam document class which is good for \fillwithlines{} command. However, I am not sure where to even begin. For example, how make the letter dotted, how to choose the width of the lines, how to choose the font for the letters and write them as shown here.
Can you please help!?
Here is what what have so far with the help.
I am recreating a sheet like the above- letters from A to Z or any numbers so that kids are able to trace them when learning to write.
I tried to incorporate the code from the link but I am finding it extremely difficult. to add the dashed letters on top of the lines.
I don't really understand how to modify the suggested code to get the letters on the lines here.
\documentclass[20pt]{exam}
\usepackage[a4paper, total={6in, 11in}]{geometry}
\usepackage{setspace}
\doublespacing
\usepackage{paracol}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{tikz}
\definecolor{FullLinesColor}{RGB}{219,48,120} % color of the full lines <<<<<<<<<<<
\definecolor{DottedLinesColor}{RGB}{50,120,220} % color of the dots <<<<<<<<<<<<
\newcommand{\Dotsep}{2pt}% dot separation <<<<<<
\newcommand{\Dotthickness}{0.3pt}% dot thickness <<<<<<
\newcommand{\LineThickness}{0.3pt}% full line thickness <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
\newcommand{\LinesSepStretch}{1.5}% change the baseline stretch <<<<<
\newcommand{\nicelines}[1][12pt]{% \nicelines{<vertical block separation>}
\begin{spacing}{\LinesSepStretch}
{\noindent\color{FullLinesColor}\rule{\linewidth}{\LineThickness}}
{\color{DottedLinesColor}\linedotted{\linewidth}{\Dotthickness}}
{\color{DottedLinesColor}\linedotted{\linewidth}{\Dotthickness}}
{\vspace{#1}\color{FullLinesColor}\rule{\linewidth}{\LineThickness}}
\end{spacing}
}
\newcommand{\linedotted}[2]{\hbox to #1{\leaders\hbox to \Dotsep{\hss\bigpoint{#2}\hss}\hfill}}
\newcommand{\bigpoint}[1]{\tikz\draw[DottedLinesColor,fill=DottedLinesColor] (0,0) circle (#1);}
