Check ISO 216 (DIN 476) German standard paper sizes online. Includes a complete mm and inches reference chart for A and B series.
Overview
Understand what the tool solves, how it works, and the boundaries of its data.
This reference is deliberately narrow: it lists 4A0 and 2A0, with a metric dimension pair and a converted inch pair for each. The shorter edge is shown first. For a landscape layout, reverse the pair; the paper designation stays the same. The table is not a full catalogue of A, B, or C sizes, even though those formats may have separate pages.
| Format | Millimeters | Inches |
|---|---|---|
| 2A0 | 1189 × 1682 mm | 46.81 × 66.22 in |
| 4A0 | 1682 × 2378 mm | 66.22 × 93.62 in |
ISO 216 concerns trimmed sizes for writing paper and certain printed matter. The ISO catalogue describes A and B series; the two oversize rows here are the page’s actual bundled data. Inches are calculated from the displayed whole-millimeter values using 1 inch = 25.4 mm, then rounded to two decimal places. See ISO 216:2007 and NIST’s length-unit definition.
Guide
Follow the workflow and verify inputs and outputs with practical examples.
Locate 2A0 or 4A0. These are larger than A0 and should not be confused with the ordinary numbered formats such as A1 or A2.
Use millimeters as the unrounded reference values shown by the table. The inch figures are a convenient converted display for communication across unit systems.
The shorter edge is first. For portrait, read 1189 × 1682 mm for 2A0 or 1682 × 2378 mm for 4A0. For landscape, swap the two numbers.
For example, a landscape 4A0 document can be specified as 2378 × 1682 mm. This is the same format as the portrait pair written in reverse, not a different size. The page is a reference table rather than a custom dimension calculator.
Use cases
See how the tool fits into real work and everyday tasks.
A designer can compare a job brief with the nominal sheet dimensions before setting a page canvas. Include the format code, units, and orientation together so a production partner can read the pair unambiguously.
A buyer can use the millimeter values to ask whether a specific stock and production process can support the requested sheet. The dimensions alone do not establish availability or machine capacity.
Teams using different units can refer to the same row. Preserve the millimeter values for precision work and treat the two-decimal inch values as rounded equivalents.
Q&A
Find concise answers to common questions and confusing cases.
The table lists 2A0 as 1189 × 1682 mm, or 46.81 × 66.22 inches. The short edge appears first.
The table lists 4A0 as 1682 × 2378 mm, or 66.22 × 93.62 inches, again with the shorter edge first.
No. This page contains only 2A0 and 4A0. It does not supply the full A, B, or C series; use the appropriate separate size reference when you need those formats.
The inch display is rounded to two decimal places. Converting that rounded number back can introduce a small difference, so use the displayed whole-millimeter values when precision matters.
Notes
Review scope, result limitations, and important precautions before use.
These are nominal sheet dimensions, not a production guarantee. The table does not add bleed, trim marks, safe areas, binding allowances, or mounting margins, and it does not report manufacturing tolerance. Confirm the finished-artwork template and acceptable tolerance with the print provider.
The reference also cannot confirm that a supplier stocks either format or that a particular press can handle it. Large-sheet work may require a special stock or workflow. Do not estimate screen size from the on-screen table; use the numeric dimensions in the document specification.
