A4 Papers

An A4 size sheet is the most used paper in the whole world. It is the standard piece of the sheet used everywhere, in countries, industrial sectors, households, schools, and many more. Dimension of A4 paper is 297x210mm or 11.69x8.27 inches. It is the perfect size for all uses such as letters, documents, magazines, etc. North America is the only place where the standard size of A4 paper is not used. Else it is universally used in all parts of the world.

A4 Paper is called A4 as it is half of an A3 or one-quarter of an A2, but most importantly, it is one-sixteenth of A0. A0 has an area of one square meter though it is not a square, and all the papers in the A series are based on A0. Thus, it gets its name from the base sheet of the A-series. It is much easier and more convenient to write on an A4 sheet than on a square meter sheet of paper. The paper has a unique mathematical property. If two pages of one size are put together to make a new sheet, they will have the same aspect ratio.

Properties of A4 Paper:

The quality of A4 Paper is determined by GSM (gram per square meter). It is in fact the thickness of the paper. For instance an 80gsm paper will be thicker than 70gsm paper. Thicker papers are used for drawing with markers or coloured pencils of bigger cross-section. Posters are normally made in 120gsm so that the heavy ink markers do not burst through the paper. However, due to concerns about environment because of cutting of trees for obtaining paper pulp use of lower GSM paper these days are recommended.
