Studio sheet: your Arabic template for tattoo artists and engravers
Most studios cannot read Arabic. This sheet gives them everything in one file: the lettering at real size, the mirror image, every letter in its own form and a note on what must not be changed. Free, no upload, no sign-up.

When printing choose “Actual size / 100%”, not “Fit to page”. The scale bar on the sheet checks it: it is exactly 50 mm long.
Script & size
The width is for the lettering on skin or on the piece of jewellery. How small it can go cleanly in your script is something to agree with the studio; our size check gives guide values only.
Good to know
What is the mirror image for?
Some studios trace the template by hand onto transfer paper and need the mirrored version. Thermal stencil printers usually mirror by themselves. Ask your studio which version it needs.
Why the letters one by one?
Arabic letters change shape depending on their position in the word. The overview shows each letter as it looks in the word, as initial, medial, final or isolated. Someone without Arabic can compare stroke by stroke that nothing is missing or separated.
Is the spelling verified?
The sheet takes over what is entered above. Names from our verified lexicon are reliable; everything else is an automatic transliteration. Have every spelling confirmed by an Arabic speaker before anything permanent.
Is anything stored?
No. The sheet is created in your browser. Text and note do not leave your device, except for the live transliteration of Latin letters into Arabic.
Note: the sheet shows script and dimensions; it does not check meaning and does not replace advice at the studio.
