Make one line with the line tool (I recommend setting the line too to 1px) - holding shift down while dragging the line out will make it perfectly straight horizontally/vertically depending on which way you drag in relation to the first point.2. After you have the first line, have it "snap" to the far right or left of the drawing area. Turn on Snap to Document Bounds & Grid through View->Snap to->Document Bounds / Grid3. Turn on the grid (view->show->grid) - you can set the dimensions of the grid in Edit->Preferences->Guides, Grid & Slices. The work has to be to the scale you are printing, of course... otherwise it will not truly be 1" or whatever.4. Using the Move tool, hold Alt down which changes your cursor to a double arrow. Now click and drag in the middle of the page; anywhere will do on the screen. This makes a copy of everything on the current layer. A copy of your newly made line will start moving over. If you have snap to grid on like you should by now, it will start snapping to the major divisions and grid lines as you drag it past them. Let it go when you have it snapped to the spot you want.5. Rinse/Repeat for each line. Then do the same copy procedure for the opposite direction (Vertical if you did Horizontal first).6. You will have a ton of layers (one for every one in your grid). Select one of the line layers, then link the rest to that (this can easily be done by clicking in the small box to the right of little eye of the non-selected layers. You will see a little chain link to show it has been linked.) Next select "Merge Linked" and all of them will merge into one layer. If you click the little eye on that layer, it will turn it on and off.You probably know those last bits, but just in case someone else who doesn't was wondering the same thing... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Edit: don't worry about making a line longer than the document space... after it's all done, select the entire document space with the Marquee and crop to that... it will trim the edges for you.</blockquote>
