HanziPress is a collection of tools that help Chinese learners turn the words they want to learn into practical study materials. From printable worksheets and flashcards to interactive character practice, vocabulary management, and online review, HanziPress brings digital learning and handwriting practice together in one place.
HanziPress is the new home of WriteChineseCharacters, continuing the original goal of making Chinese handwriting practice easier to create, customize, and use.
Why we built HanziPress
Learning Chinese involves many small, repetitive tasks.
Teachers need to prepare worksheets. Students need to practice characters and remember vocabulary. Parents look for useful printable materials. And learners often end up copying words into writing grids or creating flashcards by hand just to practice what they have learned.
We wanted to make that process simpler.
If you already know which Chinese characters or words you want to learn, you should be able to turn them into useful study materials in just a few clicks — or practice them directly online.
That idea is at the heart of HanziPress.
What you can do
Create printable Chinese worksheets
Turn individual characters, vocabulary lists, sentences, textbook lessons, poems, or other Chinese text into printable handwriting worksheets.
Customize practice grids, include pinyin and stroke-order guides, and generate vector-based PDFs designed for clear printing.
Create and print Chinese flashcards
Make custom flashcards from the Chinese words and characters you are learning, or explore ready-made decks based on HSK vocabulary and textbooks.
Print your cards for classroom activities and offline study, or use online review tools to help reinforce what you have learned.
Practice Chinese characters online
Look up characters by Chinese text, pinyin, or English. Explore stroke-order animations, trace characters, and practice writing them from memory.
You can also draw characters freehand on a blank grid and use handwriting recognition to identify what you wrote.
Build and manage your vocabulary
Explore Chinese characters and vocabulary from HSK lists, textbooks, and other learning resources. Save words to your personal vocabulary collection, organize what you are studying, and turn your selected words into worksheets or flashcards.
Instead of working through generic word lists alone, you can build learning materials around the vocabulary that matters to you.
Review and play with Chinese words
Use spaced repetition to review flashcards and revisit vocabulary over time.
You can also try Hanzi Hop, a word-chain game that challenges you to connect Chinese characters into real words and discover how vocabulary is formed.
Learn on screen. Practice on paper.
Digital tools make Chinese learning convenient, but handwriting and repeated practice remain important parts of learning Chinese characters.
HanziPress connects the two.
Look up a character, explore its stroke order, save useful vocabulary, practice online, and create flashcards or worksheets for offline study. You can choose the learning method that works best for you, whether that means practicing on a screen, printing a worksheet, or combining both.
Built for learners and teachers
HanziPress is designed for Chinese learners, teachers, parents, and classrooms.
Whether you are preparing teaching materials, reviewing HSK vocabulary, organizing words from a textbook, or improving your handwriting, the goal is the same:
Make Chinese practice easier to create, easier to personalize, and easier to use.
Free to use
HanziPress offers free tools for creating Chinese worksheets, practicing characters, and exploring learning resources.
You can get started with worksheet creation and character practice without creating an account. Some features, such as saving and managing personal vocabulary, may require an account.
HanziPress is an independent project that continues to evolve based on the needs of Chinese learners and teachers.
