[comp.graphics] Metric paper sizes

cloos@batcomputer.tn.cornell.edu (James H. Cloos Jr.) (09/17/88)

Is there a letter class of paper (as in A size, B size, etc.) that is approx.
30 cm. by 45 cm?  I have a German portable drafting board that is best used
with paper approx. this size.  I've found that 12 in by 18 in is a bit big,
and 11 in by 17 in--while useable--is a bit small.  I would expect that I
would have an easier time orderring metric drafting film of one of the
standard sizes than by just requesting 30 x 45 cm.

I cross-posted to comp.graphics because I thought there would be a stronger
chance that someone there might know the answer.  I've set the followup-to
to misc.misc.

A mailed responce is _m_o_s_t welcome.

Thanks.
