1.
Low Resolutions
Low Resolutions compromise of resolutions that are below 300 PPI but above 72 PPI. These devices are generally old
devices when technology wasn’t this far or smaller devices like low-resolution mobile screens or low-resolution projectors,
etc.
Size 72 PPI 96 PPI 150 PPI 300 PPI
4A0 4768 x 6741 6357 x 8988 9933 x 14043 19866 x 28087
2A0 3370 x 4768 4494 x 6357 7022 x 9933 14043 x 19866
A0 2384 x 3370 3179 x 4494 4967 x 7022 9933 x 14043
A1 1684 x 2384 2245 x 3179 3508 x 4967 7016 x 9933
A2 1191 x 1684 1587 x 2245 2480 x 3508 4960 x 7016
A3 842 x 1191 1123 x 1587 1754 x 2480 3508 x 4960
A4 595 x 842 794 x 1123 1240 x 1754 2480 x 3508
A5 420 x 595 559 x 794 874 x 1240 1748 x 2480
A6 298 x 420 397 x 559 620 x 874 1240 x 1748
A7 210 x 298 280 x 397 437 x 620 874 x 1240
A8 147 x 210 197 x 280 307 x 437 614 x 874
A9 105 x 147 140 x 197 219 x 307 437 x 614
A10 74 x 105 98 x 140 154 x 219 307 x 437
Such devices hold a lower number of pixels per inch and hence for the same physical lengths and breadths of paper, they
have a lesser number of pixels in dimensions compared to other higher PPIs.
ISO has stated the lengths and widths of A Series Paper Sizes in Pixels in portrait orientation for resolutions of 72 PPI,
96 PPI, 150 PPI and 300 PPI as these are the most common ones that devices in use have. The corresponding A Paper
Sizes range as 4A0, 2A0, A0, A1, …, A10.
72 PPI
The largest size here is 4A0 with dimensions of 6741 pixels × 4768 pixels while the smallest size is A10 with dimensions
of 105 pixels × 74 pixels. The dimensions of the other A Paper Sizes in Pixels vary between these largest and smallest
sizes.
96 PPI
The largest size in 96PPI is 4A0 with dimensions of 8988 pixels × 6357 pixels while the smallest size is A10 with
dimensions of 140 pixels × 98 pixels. The dimensions of other sizes vary between these.
150 PPI
The smallest size is A10 with dimensions of 219 pixels × 154 pixels while the largest size here is 4A0 with dimensions
of 14043 pixels × 9933 pixels.
300 PPI
The largest size here is 4A0 with dimensions of 28027 pixels × 19866 pixels while the smallest size is A10 with
dimensions of 437 pixels × 307 pixels. The other A Paper Sizes in Pixels vary between these sizes.
2. Medium Resolutions
Medium Resolutions are the resolutions that have Pixels Per Inch varying between 600 PPI and 1200 PPI. These devices
are our modern-day computers with higher resolutions like 4K; even mobile devices with 4K screens that have higher
PPIs.
Size 600 PPI 720 PPI 1200 PPI
4A0 39732 x 56173 47679 x 67408 79464 x 112346
2A0 28087 x 39732 33704 x 47679 56173 x 79464
A0 19866 x 28087 23839 x 33704 39732 x 56173
A1 14043 x 19866 16838 x 23839 28066 x 39732
A2 9933 x 14043 11906 x 16838 19842 x 28066
A3 7016 x 9933 8419 x 11906 14032 x 19842
A4 4960 x 7016 5953 x 8419 9921 x 14032
A5 3508 x 4960 4195 x 5953 6992 x 9921
A6 2480 x 3508 2976 x 4195 4961 x 6992
A7 1748 x 2480 2098 x 2976 3496 x 4961
A8 1228 x 1748 1474 x 2098 2456 x 3496
A9 874 x 1228 1049 x 1474 1748 x 2456
A10 614 x 874 737 x 1049 1229 x 1748
Such devices hold a lower number of pixels per inch compared to the High-Resolution ones but keep a more significant
amount of pixels compared to the Low-Resolution ones and hence have an average number of pixels in dimensions
regarding physical lengths and breadths of paper.
ISO has stated the lengths and breadths of A Paper Sizes in Pixels in portrait orientation for resolutions of 600 PPI; 720
PPI and 1200 PPI as these are the most common ones that devices with medium resolutions in use have. The
corresponding physical A Paper Sizes are 4A0, 2A0, A0, A1, …, A10.
600 PPI
The largest size here is 4A0 with dimensions of 56173 pixels × 39732 pixels; while the smallest size is A10 with
dimensions of 874 pixels × 614 pixels. The other A Paper Sizes in Pixels vary between these stated sizes.
720 PPI
The smallest size is A10 with dimensions of 1049 pixels × 737 pixels; while the largest size here is 4A0 with dimensions
of 67408 pixels × 47679 pixels. The dimensions of other sizes vary between these largest and smallest sizes.
1200 PPI
4A0 is the size with the most significant dimensions of 112346 pixels × 79464 pixels; while the A10 has the smallest
dimensions of 1748 pixels × 1229 pixels. The other A Paper Sizes in Pixels vary between these sizes.
3. High Resolutions
High Resolutions are the ones that have a large number of Pixels Per Inch i.e. a whopping 1440 PPI to 2880 PPI. Such
sizes and resolutions can theoretically either be seen on a very minute or small screen; with a whopping 4K panel or on
largest screens with 16K or higher panels.
Size 1440 PPI 2400 PPI 2880 PPI
4A0 95357 x 134816 158928 x 224693 190715 x 269631
2A0 67408 x 95357 112346 x 158928 134816 x 190715
A0 47679 x 67408 79464 x 112346 95357 x 134816
A1 33676 x 47679 56131 x 79464 67351 x 95357
A2 23811 x 33676 39684 x 56131 47622 x 67351
A3 16838 x 23811 28063 x 39684 33676 x 47622
A4 11906 x 16838 19843 x 28063 23811 x 33676
A5 8391 x 11906 13985 x 19843 16781 x 23811
A6 5953 x 8391 9922 x 13985 11906 x 16781
A7 4195 x 5953 6991 x 9922 8391 x 11906
A8 2948 x 4195 4913 x 6991 5896 x 8391
A9 2098 x 2948 3508 x 4913 4195 x 5896
A10 1474 x 2098 2480 x 3508 2948 x 4195
But, in fact, such PPIs are hardly ever achieved on screens. These PPIs are only available in high-resolution scanners;
printers which are used to print either very minute details like chips, etc.; or large flexes which need things to be perfect
and of great quality.
They host a large number of pixels for corresponding physical lengths and breadths as they have such high pixel
densities. ISO has stated the lengths and breadths of A Paper Sizes in Pixels in portrait orientation for resolutions of 1440
PPI, 2400 PPI; 2880 PPI as these are the most common ones that are in use. The corresponding physical A Paper Sizes
range as 4A0, 2A0, A0, A1, …, A10.
1440 PPI
4A0 is the size with the largest dimensions of 134816 pixels × 95357 pixels while the smallest size A10 has dimensions
of 2098 pixels × 1474 pixels. The other A Paper Sizes in Pixels vary between these stated sizes.
2400 PPI
The smallest size is A10 with dimensions of 3508 pixels × 2480 pixels while the largest size here; is 4A0 with
dimensions of 224693 pixels × 158928 pixels.
2880 PPI
Here, 4A0 has the largest ever possible dimensions of 269631 pixels × 190715 pixels; even the smallest size A10 has
dimensions 4195 pixels × 2948 pixels which are bigger than dimensions of A10s in all other PPIs. The dimensions of
other A Paper Sizes in Pixels range in between these maximum and minimum dimensions.
