A4 or Letter Cardstock?

[cholo71796]

I just bought some of this. I want to know if I need to use the A4 or Letter pepakura files- or if it doesn't matter. Help please!

lol A4 (europe) is the 8.5x11(usa)

 

[Balmung]

Sorry!!!

umm... cardstock is more durable than A4 and cardstock does not turn into mush when you resin....
so there is a HUGE,HUGE difference.

A4 refers to the size. You can have letter cardstock, or a4 cardstock. The type of materials is basically the same, its just the dimensions.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_216#A_series
A4 is an international standard of paper size- ISO 216 to be exact, which was determined by geometrical and mathematical regularity.
It's 210mm by 297mm, or 8.27in by 11.69in

Letter is a somewhat archaic standard- it's theoretically based on 1/4 of the average stretch of a vatman's arms- from the days of traditional papermaking.
It's 8.5in by 11in, or 215.9mm by 279.4mm.

These are height and width size standards, not thickness standards. Each can be cardstock, or regular paper, or tracing paper, etc.

Thanks; so A4 is for people who aren't well... perfectly accurate? XD

No, I understand, a euro isn't a dollar and they're different because they're not the same. It was a joke- thanks man!

yeah, You can switch the size of the paper in pepakura by clicking Print and paper configuration.
And only letter size paper fits 99% US printers.
