Successive paper sizes in the series (A1, A2, A3, etc.) are defined by halving the area of the preceding paper size and rounding down, so that the long side of A(n + 1) is the same length as the short side of An. Hence, each next size is nearly exactly half the area of the prior size. So, an A1 page can fit two A2 pages inside the same area.

The result is a new size, for example with the abbreviation A2.0 we would have a 420 × 1189 mm size.

[2] Word Viewer allows text from a Word document to be copied into clipboard and pasted into a word processor. [3] The last version was Word Viewer 2003 Service Pack 3 released in 2007. [4]
This makes the envelope more expensive. There is also the argument that the paper of the envelope can be substituted with lesser-quality paper as the envelope no longer must be written upon; [4] this perhaps was more relevant at the time of Callahan's invention but is a somewhat specious claim today. Over time the quality of paper generally has ...
