This might be a strange question, but I'm not sure where else to ask. I live in Madrid and work remotely for my job in the USA, doing architectural drawing. My work requires me to print out and review my own drawings, which is much easier on a hard copy. The paper I use back home is sized 12"x18" (half size of a 24"x36" Architectural sheet), or even 11"X17" (more common) can work. While this is in between A2 and A3 and I can plot to fit on either of these sizes, sometimes it will distort things a bit, and I'm wondering if anyone knows of any retailers (I've already searched on Amazon.es) in Spain, or even somewhere else in Europe that might carry American sized papers? I wish the USA could try to fit in with the rest of the world for once

Can you plot while keeping the aspect ratio correct ??

For 12x18 buy A3super ! Actual A3super is 12x20 inches !
or Super A3 which is a tad less than 29 inches !


(Regular A3 is 11,75 x 16,50)
