Both are available in the US, while in Canada, mainly the Staples ARC system is available. These two systems sell products based on letter and junior (5.5 x 8.5 inch, which is half of letter size) sizes.

Digest size is a magazine size, smaller than a conventional or "journal size" magazine, but larger than a standard paperback book, approximately 14 cm × 21 cm (5 + 1 ⁄ 2 by 8 + 1 ⁄ 4 inches).

The most used of this series is the size A4, which is 210 mm × 297 mm (8.27 in × 11.7 in) and thus almost exactly 1 ⁄ 16 square metre (0.0625 m 2 ; 96.8752 sq in) in area.
