Printed Paper Sizes

Understanding standard UK paper sizes is essential when planning any print project, from business stationery to marketing materials. Using the correct paper size ensures your designs are printed accurately, cost-effectively, and professionally.

The most common paper sizes in the UK follow the ISO 216 international standard, known as the A-series, which includes popular sizes like A4, A5, and A3. Each size is precisely measured, making it easier to scale documents up or down without distortion.

Whether you are printing leaflets, brochures, posters, or letterheads, choosing the right paper size helps create a polished and effective finished product.

A0: 1188mm x 841mm
A1: 841mm x 594mm
