Ofte stillede spørgsmål om notesbøger med prikker

What is the difference between a dot grid journal and a regular notebook?

A dot grid journal has dots instead of lines or squares. This offers more freedom and flexibility, especially for creative projects and bullet journaling.

Are dot grid notebooks good for bullet journaling?

Yes, they are the preferred choice among bullet journal users because the dots provide structure without dominating the layout.

What type of paper is best if I'm using markers?

We recommend notebooks with paper of at least 100 GSM, as this reduces the risk of bleed-through. Paper thickness is a good guideline, but paper quality also plays an important role. Yop & Tom have 160 GSM paper and are therefore particularly suitable for markers and felt-tip pens. Dingbats have 100 GSM paper, but surprisingly perform well with most fineliners and water-based felt-tip pens thanks to their good paper quality.

Ja, du kan godt bruge alkoholbaserede tuscher i en dot grid journal.

We do not recommend using alcohol-based markers in dot grid notebooks as they often bleed through, even on thick paper. If you wish to use markers, opt for water-based alternatives or test on the back page first to avoid bleed-through.

Are Dingbats journals truly eco-friendly?

Yes! Dingbats use FSC-certified paper and vegan materials in their production.
