Film A3 prints were done by Bonusprint : : How do the An sizes compare with the " X " here in the US? What size : is A3? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paper_size "The international paper size standard, ISO 216, is based on the German DIN 476 standard for paper sizes. Using the metric system, the base format is a sheet of paper measuring 1 m² in area (A0 paper size). Successive paper sizes in the series A1, A2, A3, etc., are defined by halving the preceding paper size parallel to its shorter side. The most frequently used paper size is A4 (210 × 297 mm). This standard has been adopted by all countries in the world except the United States and Canada."
