Drawing paper sizes

The British Standard BS 8888 recommends that for normal practical purposes the area of the largest sheet is 1 m² and the sides are in the ratio of 1:√2. The dimensions of the sheet are 841 mm × 1189 mm. For smaller sheets the longest side is progressively halved and the designations and dimensions are given in Table 5.1 and Fig. 5.1. Since the A0 size has the area of 1 m², paper weights are conveniently expressed in the unit ‘grams per square metre’.

Table 5.1.

Designation	Size (mm)	Area
A0	841 × 1189	1 m²
A1	594 × 841	5000 cm²
A2	420 × 594	2500 cm²
A3	297 × 420	1250 cm²
A4	210 × 297	625 cm²

Julian F.

Head of Cybersecurity

I wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.

Addison B.

Field Engineer

I’ve been on the O’Reilly platform for more than eight years. I use a couple of learning platforms, but I'm on O'Reilly more than anybody else. When you're there, you start learning. I'm never disappointed.

Amir M.

Data Platform Tech Lead

I'm always learning. So when I got on to O'Reilly, I was like a kid in a candy store. There are playlists. There are answers. There's on-demand training. It's worth its weight in gold, in terms of what it allows me to do.
