I have been looking for already made practice sheet for learning to write Chinese. They either cost money or have random characters, and usually those that cost money are also missing random yet important characters.
My goal is to have:
1) Something that looks like the attached picture. The one on the right is pretty good, but I would like all the like to be dotted. Besides that I would like that the centre looks neat (the one on the left has a strange centre).
So my questions are very basic usage of Gimp I guess.
a) How do I make the frame to be a perfect square?
b) How do I make the horizontal and vertical lines perfectly in the middle?
c) How do I make dotted lines?
d) How do I make the diagonal lines perfectly from corner to corner?
e) How do I make the centre of where all the lines meet look nice?
If someone knows of a tutorial on how to get the job done please refer me to one.
I did all of this 15 years ago on Windows XP/7 version of a Corel Paintshop Pro. But later my computer got stolen and I lost all of it. Corel then made it impossible to use the version I had paid for on Windows 10, so then I decided to go with Gimp, but I have forgotten many of the techniques I learned back then and now I am also using a different program.
If you don't know on any tutorial that can help me do this, then please let me know where I can upload a tutorial. I would love to share how to do it as I am learning it.
When I am done with this step then I will post about the next step in my "how to write Chinese"
