...and printers themselves often call a format by the... format itself! In
shops you will hear "5 and a half by 8 and a half". No mistakes! In fact,
most if not all the people I know in this industry will name just about any
format by the numbers. While many people will know Letter, Legal and
Tabloid, I’d be surprised to find many people aware of something like Junior
Legal... But the article in wikipedia is very interesting nonetheless. :)
