Once you've selected the notebook and have decided to create a new note, you are prompted to select a paper type (default types are blank, lined or graph paper) to use as a background for your note. You can change the paper type at any time, even if you've already written or drawn something on the note.

There are additional collections available for you to choose from including, storyboarding templates, music scores, and a variety of lined and graph papers. Learn more
