   For example, a 500-sheet ream of 20# 8 + 1 ⁄ 2-by-11-inch (216 by 279 mm) copy paper may be specified "10 M". 1000 cut sheets (or two reams) will weigh 10 lb (4.5 kg), half of the four reams of cut paper resulting from the 20# basis ream of 17-by-22-inch (432 by 559 mm) paper.

   Thus, one ream of twenty-pound letter-size paper has a mass of five pounds. The metric unit for paper thickness, or grammage, is grams per square metre. Since 1 pound is 453.59237 grams, 1 inch is 25.4 mm, and 1 standard ream is 500 sheets of 17 in.×22 in., a paper thickness of 20 pounds per ream corresponds to 75 g/m².

5. Card stock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Card_stock

   Most nations describe paper in terms of grammage—the weight in grams of one sheet of the paper measuring one square meter.. Other people, especially in the United States, describe paper in terms of pound weight—the weight in pounds per ream (500 sheets) of the paper with a given area (based on historical production sizes before trimming): for card stock, this is 20 by 26 in (508 by 660 mm ...

6. Paper size - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_size

   The weight of an A-series sheet of a given paper weight can be calculated by knowing the ratio of its size to the A0 sheet. For example, an A4 sheet is 1 ⁄ 16 the size of an A0 sheet, so if it is made from 80 g/m 2 paper, it weighs 1 ⁄ 16 of 80 g (2.8 oz), which is 5 g (0.18 oz).

   In the US, paper density is usually measured in "pound per reams" (of 500 sheets). Typical Letter paper has a basis weight of paper of 20 or 24 pounds (9.1 or 10.9 kg) – the weight of 500 sheets (a ream) of 17-by-22-inch (431.8 by 558.8 mm) paper at 70 °F (21 °C) and at 50% humidity. [3]

9. Paper density - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_density

   The density can be calculated by dividing the grammage of paper (in grams per square metre or "gsm") by its caliper (usually in micrometres, occasionally in mils). [1] The "ISO 534:2011, Paper and board — Determination of thickness, density and specific volume" indicates that the paper density is expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm ...
