1. Everything you could possibly
want to know about Paper -
without the jargon!
Paper is an everyday essential for most offices, but do you know
which paper is suitable for the job that you are doing?
Here’s our guide for all your paper needs!
2. Paper Sizes
Most photocopiers and printers take A4 paper, and many
take up to A3 paper. The “A” is the industry standard for
paper sizes, each paper is double the area of the previous
size:
A0 – 1189mm x 841mm
A1 – 841mm x 594mm
A2 – 594mm x 420mm
A3 – 420mm x 297mm
A4 – 297mm x 210mm
A5 – 210mm x 148mm
A6 – 148mm x 105mm
A7 – 105mm x 74mm
3. Paper Weight
Paper is measured in gsm (grams per square metre) –
a standard piece of everyday copying paper tends to be
around 80gsm.
When producing important documents, a heavier weight of
paper creates a better, more professional look –
typically 90-120gsm.
Card is heavier still, weighing around 140-180gsm.
4. Everyday Paper
Ideal for general office use including black and white printing,
copying and faxing.
Everyday High Volume Paper
Paper in this range tends to be of a smoother quality,
allowing for continuous printing if required. The slightly
better quality is suited to both mono and colour printing and
also printing on both sides (duplex printing).
5. Recycled Paper
Recycled paper ranges in its ‘recycled content’ for example
true recycled paper is made from 100% post consumer
waste, whereas others may only contain 50-80%.
Recycled paper can be used in place of any standard paper –
the same standards apply, eg the heavier the weight the
better quality the material.
