1) Copier Paper Sizes: A4 vs A3
-
A4 (210 × 297mm) – The Malaysian standard for everyday printing, school assignments, and office documents.
-
A3 (297 × 420mm) – Ideal for charts, drawings, spreadsheets, and presentations that need more space.

2) GSM Explained: 70gsm, 75gsm, 80gsm
GSM (grams per square metre) indicates paper thickness and opacity.
-
70gsm – Lightweight and budget-friendly. Best for drafts and bulk photocopying.
-
75gsm – A balanced option with better opacity and feel than 70gsm. Good for daily office printing.
-
80gsm – Smoother surface and higher opacity. Ideal for double-sided printing and client-facing documents.
Quick Tip: If you print duplex (two-sided) or need a premium look, choose 80gsm. For internal drafts and training materials, 70gsm saves cost.
