What standard paper size do you guys use??

I just got an international call confirming that A4 is our standard paper size...

How do you tell paper size? o.o

**Hessah** · 11-12-2009, 01:49 AM

Err.. our "normal" paper is specific size, and it has a named called A4.. xD

and A3 is double of A4, and A2 is double of A3, and A1 is double of A2, and A0 is double of A1...

-throws it in to confuse you-

Letter size I guess... (Photoshop even says US Letter under paper options)

Though I think I heard Japan was A4 as well, somewhere. .___.

As usual, North America has our own standard compared to most of the world. An A4 page is 8.3"x11.7" (210mm Ã— 29mm), compared to our standard Letter size, 8.5"x11" (216mm Ã— 279mm).

I really hope that was a typo.

O.o

Why would that be a typo? Since 11" equals 279mm, 11.7" should equal 29. Makes perfect sense.

It's 297mm.

I know you're gonna laugh, but for a sec I took that statement as true.

I need my sleep.

I'm glad you did, actually. It was meant to be very deadpan. It's hard to pull that off in just text, heh.
