Paper Size and Weight Charts and Conversion Table

A couple of pages that have information about paper sizes and weights. This should be very useful when trying to resize a model, print a PDF file or make the mysterious conversion from Euroland sized and weighted papers to US paper sizes and weights.

Paper Weight Conversion Table

This page has a table of how much paper is in bulk packages, a table of Imperial Paper sizes and a very useful paper weight calculator for bulk buyers:
Quire, Ream, Bundle, Bale & Pallet - Paper Quantities
Here is another set of tables of Imperial paper measurements
Foolscap Size & Dimensions For The Old British Imperial Paper Sizes
Old English Paper Sizes - Uncut Printing, Book & Drawing Paper

Another page with information about traditional paper dimensions
http://home.clara.net/brianp/paper.html
The home page of this site has links to information about current and traditional measurement systems.

I would like to see some paper models that were resized and printed and constructed using Double Elephant paper. They would be Huuuuge.

Anyone up to building a model printed on quad double crown paper?
