The Standard size for A0 Paper Size is 841mm by 1189 mm. Paper sizes can often be confusing. So with this article were here to help you learn about a0 paper sizes.

These standards are the ones used internationally and by printers. The standards were first developed in France during 1798, when the French Revolution was going on and they were bettered by a German scholar in 1922, who introduced a system called the (DIN) system, which is what we use today.

Note: The most common A0 paper size is 33.1 x 46.8 inches. This is the correct size to purchase if your looking for the international version of the size and not a domestic variant.

The main advantage of the sizes is the aspect ratio, which is consistently the root of two, this allows us to remain consistent as we move up in sizes.

In the ISO paper size framework the tallness to-width proportion of all pages is the square base of two.

The width and the tallness of a page identify with one another like the side and the corner to corner of a square. This angle proportion is particularly advantageous for paper size. On the off chance that you put two such pages alongside one another, or identically slice one parallel to its shorter side into two equivalent pieces, then the subsequent page will again have the same width/stature proportion.
