A0 is defined so that it has an area of 1 m 2 (11 sq ft) before rounding to the nearest 1 millimetre (0.039 in). Successive paper sizes in the series (A1, A2, A3, etc.) are defined by halving the area of the preceding paper size and rounding down, so that the long side of A(n + 1) is the same length as the short side of An. Hence, each next ...
ISO 5457, last updated in 1999, [17] introduces elongated sizes that are formed by a combination of the dimensions of the short side of an A-size (e.g. A2) with the dimensions of the long side of another larger A-size (e.g. A0). The result is a new size, for example with the abbreviation A2.0 we would have a 420 × 1189 mm size.
The sizes of the RA series are also slightly larger than corresponding inch-based US sizes specified in ANSI/ASME Y14.1, e.g. RA4 is roughly equivalent to 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in × 12 in (220 mm × 300 mm) and ANSI A (alias US Letter) is defined as 8 + 1 ⁄ 2 in × 11 in (220 mm × 280 mm).
A0, A-0, A 0, or a 0 may refer to: 101 A0 and 103 A0, two versions of the German Heinkel Tourist moped; A0 paper size, an international ISO 216 standard paper size (841 × 1189 mm), which results in an area very close to 1 m 2; A0 highway (Zimbabwe), a highway which orbits Zimbabwe; A0, the lowest A (musical note) note on a standard piano; A0 ...
Some industries, even in metric countries, have adopted industry standards which are not obviously multiples of metric units. One example of this is paper sizes: the widely used A series specification begins from A0, which has a surface area of 1 square metre, with sides in the ratio of approximately 1: √ 2 (841mm by 1189mm). This ratio has ...
A quire of paper is a measure of paper quantity. The usual meaning is 25 sheets of the same size and quality: 1 ⁄ 20 of a ream of 500 sheets. Quires of 25 sheets are often used for machine-made paper, while quires of 24 sheets are often used for handmade or specialised paper of 480-sheet reams.
