PRO tip: To print in any ISO paper size, use the 5x7 aspect ratio, which is very close to the ISO aspect ratio. The A0 paper size measures one square meter and is the most popular large poster size from the ISO series. The A4 is the European equivalent of the American Letter paper size, and used in most standard home printer, it is slightly narrower and a little longer than the American letter.

The most used paper size of the ISO series is the size A4, which is 210×297mm (8.27×11.7in) and almost exactly 1⁄16 square metre (0.0625m 2 96.8752 sq in) in area. Since A series sizes share the same aspect ratio (√2), they can be scaled to other A-series sizes without being distorted, and two sheets can be reduced to fit on exactly one sheet without any cutoff or margins. There are 11 standard poster sizes in the ISO A series, designated from A0 to A10, and all share the same aspect ratio, which is incredibly practical as they can all be scaled to any other A-series poster sizes without being distorted. The ISO 216 is commonly known as the International poster size standard except in North America and parts of Central and South America, where North American paper sizes such as 'Letter' and 'Legal' are used (8.5x11in). Most European countries use ISO 216, which includes the commonly used A4 size.

Here are the most popular poster sizes used and sold in North America ( all measures in inches): Most countries use the ISO standard paper size, except for the United States, Canada, the Philippines, and Mexico. This means that when you convert from one system to another, you need to multiply or divide all dimensions by a factor of 2.54 to get the correct result. The US system uses inches as its base unit, while the European system uses centimeters. Both systems are based on dimensions of paper, but they use different units to measure them. There are two main standards for poster sizes: the North American standard and the European standard.
