A type of ledger paper that has a pale grid marked in blue or green ink. Cross section paper has a repetitive pattern of heavier lines that occur regularly, such as every ten blocks or every 1 inch square. Cross section paper is used for scaled drawings, charts and graphs. A similar type of paper, called quadrille, has an even density on all its grid lines.
