FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about ChitSheet.
Getting Started
Is ChitSheet completely free? ▾
Yes — 100% free. No hidden tiers, no watermarks, no credit card, ever. Just open the editor and go.
Do I need to sign up or log in? ▾
No. ChitSheet saves everything to your browser's local storage automatically. No account, no email, no password.
Can I use ChitSheet on my phone? ▾
Yes. ChitSheet works in any modern mobile browser. The interface adapts for smaller screens with a mobile-friendly editor and preview toggle.
Will my notes be saved if I close the browser? ▾
Yes. Your projects auto-save continuously to your browser's local storage. Close the tab, reopen it later — your work is still there.
Features & Editing
How many columns can I use? ▾
ChitSheet supports 1 to 4 columns. 3-column is the most popular for exam cheat sheets — it fits the most information while staying readable at small font sizes.
How small can the font go? ▾
The minimum font size is 5pt. That's tiny. You can fit an enormous amount of information on one A4 sheet at 5–7pt with 3–4 columns.
How does the text compression feature work? ▾
Highlight any block of text in the editor and click the Compress button (or use the shortcut). It strips all paragraph breaks, empty lines, and extra spaces — turning multi-line blocks into a dense, single-line run of text.
Can I add images or diagrams? ▾
Currently, ChitSheet is optimized for text-based notes. Image support is on the roadmap for a future update.
Can I have multiple cheat sheets? ▾
Yes. The Dashboard lets you create, rename, and manage multiple separate cheat sheet projects.
Printing & Exporting
How do I export as PDF? ▾
Click the "Download PDF" button in the top bar. It uses your preview pages to generate a pixel-perfect PDF — no browser print dialog needed.
Can I print directly from ChitSheet? ▾
Yes — use the Print button. For the best result, set Margins to "None" in your browser's print dialog. The preview is already sized to match the browser's print engine exactly.
Can I export individual pages as images? ▾
Yes. Open the Export menu and you'll see per-page PNG export buttons for every page you've created. Great for sharing on WhatsApp or Discord.
Does the printout match the preview exactly? ▾
Yes — as long as you print with Margins set to "None" and Headers/Footers turned off in the browser print dialog. The A4 preview uses the exact same physical dimensions as the paper.
Account & Privacy
Is my data private? ▾
Completely. Your notes are stored in your browser's local storage and never sent to any server. We have no access to your content.
Does ChitSheet use cookies or tracking? ▾
Only basic analytics to understand how many people use the tool. No ad tracking, no selling of data. See our Privacy Policy for details.
What happens to my data if I clear my browser? ▾
Clearing browser data or local storage will delete your saved projects. We recommend exporting your cheat sheet as a PDF before clearing your browser, as a backup.
