You can fold any size(however large it is) into a4 size.

there is way to do it.

we use to fold a1 sizes into a4 for filing in such away that without removing it from the file, u can open it to full size to view.

i learnt it during my internship back in 1994.

yeh its the "A" system all paper sizes from A00 down to the smallest are all of a result from combining the previous size by 2 or by 4 and re-aranging.

How to fold drawings was the first thing I learnt when I started working...it took a while to master it, but fortunatly there are always a lot of drawings that need folding :wink:

 

hunt up anyone in your office that have worked with drawings for more than oh let's say five years - the more the better - and they can show you

i typically find that D sized sheets fold into AQ size rather easily.

What big PJ!!!!!!!!!

 

It's matter of common sense.

why would anyone want to fold A4 print unleast in a4 size:shock:

and i have not seen anyone using autocad need to plot in A5 paper:?

What's a PJ? What is A5? I've never seen A5 before.

 

Dipali, don't worry about Dave, he has this really dry sense of humour, and just saw the perfect opening there.

A5 is half of A4:wink:

 

Yeh, perfect opening but 3 down soon.

[Guest Alan Cullen]

3/56, not doing too good are we. Ah well, that's why I'm not watching.

Sorry Alan but I have to keep telling people that I don't have a sense of humor.

OK guys can you fold an A4 sheet more than 7 times edge to edge ??

 

The answer is no.. Try it and if you say that you can, I DON'T believe you.. Hahahaha.. :lol:

[Geoffers]

I think you cannot fold any size sheet more than 7 times, 'geometric progression' is it?

Yes it is a great party trick and you would be amazed how many people get caught out on that one... Hahaha:lol:

Somewhat true, but Mythbusters did it. Of course it was a sheet of paper the size of an aircraft hangar.

 

Here it is Paper Fold they folded it 11 times.

That is amazing, after 6 times it is almost impossible to do without extreme force, and i do mean extreme force. Wow that's incredible.
