Recto page from a rare Blackletter Bible (1497). The canons of page construction are historical reconstructions, based on careful measurement of extant books and what is known of the mathematics and engineering methods of the time, of manuscript-framework methods that may have been used in Medieval- or Renaissance-era book design to divide a page into pleasing proportions.

Today the magazine is produced as an academic journal. The articles are typically much longer than they were during the journal's early years, though they are still shorter than those of the typical academic journal. In addition, the "Notes" now far outweigh the "Queries", and book reviews have also been introduced.
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 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.
