B Paper Standard Size Query

Tool Introduction

The "B Paper Standard Size Query" tool is a professional and practical online service designed to provide users with detailed standard size information for B series paper (from B0 to B10). This tool displays the dimensions of each paper type in a clear table format, including precise values in millimeters (width × height) and inches (width × height), greatly facilitating designers, printing industry professionals, and any user who needs accurate paper dimensions. In addition, the tool is equipped with an intuitive B series paper size comparison chart to help users more visually understand the relative sizes and proportions of different paper types.

How to Use

1. Access the tool page: Directly open this tool page, and you will immediately see the complete B series paper standard size comparison chart and comparison diagram.
2. Consult the size comparison table: The comparison table clearly lists the size data for B0, B1, B2, B3, B4, B5, B6, B7, B8, B9, B10, and other paper types. You can find the paper size for a specific type as needed, including both millimeters (width × height) and inches (width × height) units.
3. View the size comparison chart: Below the table, a B series paper size comparison chart is provided, which visually helps you quickly understand the relative size relationships between different paper sizes.
4. Mobile operation tips: On mobile devices such as phones or tablets, if the table content is wide, you may need to swipe left and right to view the complete data for all columns.

Usage Example

This tool is very intuitive and convenient to use, requiring no complex operations. Below is a simple usage example:

• Operation demonstration: The user visits the "B Paper Standard Size Query" page.
• Example lookup: Suppose you need to query the specific dimensions of B4 paper.
• Expected result: You will directly find the row for "B4" in the comparison table and be able to see its millimeter dimensions as "2250×353" and inch dimensions as "9.8×13.9". At the same time, through the comparison chart below, you can intuitively understand the relative size and position of B4 paper within the entire B series.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Q: What input formats are supported? A: This tool is an information query tool and does not accept any user input parameters or formats. You only need to visit the page to directly view the standard size data of B series paper.
• Q: What is the format of the output result? A: The output result presents the size data of B series paper in an intuitive HTML table format, supplemented by a size comparison chart of B series paper. The table content includes size model, millimeters (width × height), and inches (width × height) information.
• Q: How are B series paper sizes defined? A: B series paper sizes are standards specified by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO 216). Their design is based on the A series, but the area of B0 is √2 times (approximately 1.414 square meters) that of 1 square meter, not A0's 1 square meter. The aspect ratio of B series paper also remains 1:√2 (approximately 1:1.414), and the area of each B(n) size is half the area of the B(n-1) size.
• Q: What scenarios are B series paper mainly used for? A: B series paper is typically used in the printing industry, such as for posters, bookbinding, envelopes, postcards, advertising flyers, and various special printed materials that require sizes between those of the A series.

Notes

• The B series paper size data provided by this tool strictly adheres to the international ISO 216 standard, ensuring its accuracy and authority.
• The millimeter and inch dimensions in the comparison table are precise standard data; please use them as the primary reference.
• The "B Series Paper Size Comparison Chart" below is only a visual tool to assist in understanding the relative sizes of different paper sizes and should not be used as the final basis for precise measurement or printing.
• When browsing this page on a mobile device, if the table content exceeds the screen range, you can swipe left and right to view the complete size data.
• All dimensions are expressed in "width × height" format, where "width" refers to the shorter side of the paper and "height" refers to the longer side of the paper.

Introduction to B Series Paper Standard

B series paper sizes are a set of paper standards defined by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO 216), which, along with the more commonly encountered A series and C series, form the international paper size standard system. The B series is designed to fill the gaps between A series sizes, providing more size options to meet the needs of different printing and application scenarios.

Similar to the A series, the B series also follows the 1:√2 aspect ratio principle, meaning the long side of the paper is √2 times (approximately 1.414) the short side. The advantage of this ratio is that when a sheet of paper is cut in half, the two resulting smaller sheets maintain the same aspect ratio, which greatly simplifies scaling operations in design, copying, and printing processes. B0 paper is the base size of the B series, and its area is defined as √2 square meters (approximately 1.414 square meters), not A0's 1 square meter. This means that B0 paper is larger than A0 paper, so B series sizes are generally slightly larger than the corresponding A series sizes (e.g., B4 is larger than A4).

B series paper is widely used in various printed materials and stationery products, such as books, manuals, posters, envelopes, postcards, and various documents that require larger or intermediate sizes between A series sizes. Understanding the B series paper standard is crucial for graphic designers, publishers, printers, and anyone who needs to handle paper sizes.
