- The most common and standard poster dimensions are typically A4 (8.27 x 11.69 inches).
- An A0 poster (33.11 x 46.81 inches) is about 1 meter squared.
- A0 posters become A1 size (23.39 x 33.11 inches) by folding an A0 poster in half. Following this logic, A1 folded in half creates A2 (16.54 x 23.39 inches), and so on and so forth to size A10.
- Because the objective of each visual is different, they come in different sizes. 40” x 60”, 27” x 40”, 24” x 36”, 18” x 24”, 16” x 20”, 11” x 17”, 8.5” x 11” (in the order of large to small) are the standard poster dimensions.
