Within each country, a small number of paper sizes are commonly used. Normally, one of those sizes is much more common than the others. Most countries follow ISO Standard 216: “Writing paper and certain classes of printed matter-Trimmed sizes-A and B series.”
Internationalized applications should not make assumptions about the page sizes available to them. The Oracle Solaris system does not provide any support for tracking the output page size. This tracking is the responsibility of the application program. The following table shows common international page sizes.
