About Paper Size Reference

The Paper Size Reference helps you compare ISO A-series paper, North American paper sizes such as US Letter and Legal, and custom paper dimensions. It converts each size into millimeters, centimeters, inches, points, print pixels, aspect ratio, and area, with a proportional preview that makes differences easier to see before printing or designing a document.

How to Use the Paper Size Reference

  1. Choose a standard size or custom size: Select A4, US Letter, Legal, Tabloid, or another preset from the paper size menu. Choose Custom size when you need to compare your own dimensions.
  2. Set orientation and print resolution: Pick portrait or landscape, then choose the DPI value you want for the pixel guide, such as 300 dpi for print.
  3. Enter custom dimensions when needed: For a custom sheet, type the width and height and choose millimeters, centimeters, or inches.
  4. Review dimensions and closest matches: Use the result cards to read the size in mm, cm, inches, points, pixels, aspect ratio, area, and closest standard paper sizes.

A-Series Paper Sizes

The ISO A series uses the โˆš2 aspect ratio, so each sheet keeps the same proportions when it is folded or cut in half. A0 is defined as roughly one square meter, and each smaller size halves the area.

Size Millimeters Inches Common use
A0 841 ร— 1,189 mm 33.11 ร— 46.81 in Large posters, architectural sheets, display layouts
A1 594 ร— 841 mm 23.39 ร— 33.11 in Posters, flip charts, technical drawings
A2 420 ร— 594 mm 16.54 ร— 23.39 in Medium posters, diagrams, presentation boards
A3 297 ร— 420 mm 11.69 ร— 16.54 in Posters, spreads, menus, drawings
A4 210 ร— 297 mm 8.27 ร— 11.69 in Letters, forms, office printing, PDFs
A5 148 ร— 210 mm 5.83 ร— 8.27 in Notebooks, flyers, compact handouts
A6 105 ร— 148 mm 4.13 ร— 5.83 in Postcards, inserts, small flyers
A7 74 ร— 105 mm 2.91 ร— 4.13 in Pocket notes, tickets, labels
A8 52 ร— 74 mm 2.05 ร— 2.91 in Small cards, labels, tags
A9 37 ร— 52 mm 1.46 ร— 2.05 in Tiny labels and tickets
A10 26 ร— 37 mm 1.02 ร— 1.46 in Stamps, small tags, mini labels

US Letter, Legal, and Other North American Sizes

North American office sizes are inch-based and do not follow the A-series folding ratio. This is why scaling A4 artwork to US Letter, or Letter artwork to A4, often leaves margins or requires cropping.

Size Millimeters Inches Common use
US Letter 215.9 ร— 279.4 mm 8.5 ร— 11 in US and Canadian office documents
US Legal 215.9 ร— 355.6 mm 8.5 ร— 14 in Contracts, legal documents, long forms
Tabloid / Ledger 279.4 ร— 431.8 mm 11 ร— 17 in Newsletters, spreads, folded booklets
Executive 184.15 ร— 266.7 mm 7.25 ร— 10.5 in Business notes and compact correspondence
Half Letter 139.7 ร— 215.9 mm 5.5 ร— 8.5 in Booklets, inserts, planner pages

Paper Size Comparison Tips

A-series ratio: A0 through A10 use the โˆš2 ratio, approximately 1:1.414. This makes them scale cleanly between sizes, such as A3 to A4 or A4 to A5.

Pixel dimensions: Pixel size depends on print resolution. Multiply width and height in inches by DPI. A 300 dpi file is standard for many print jobs, while 150 dpi is often enough for drafts or large posters viewed from a distance.
