What is the largest size i can get

Hi,

What is the largest paper size i can get? inches?

[Egg Bramhill]

Hi behzad, here's the XX warning screen. So it would appear that 108" x 108" is the max.

A list of common paper sizes from a google search

You can also buy rolls of 24 inch wide paper that are 100 feet long.

Ah! read the question wrongly. 78 3/4" x 111 5/16" is a big piece of paper.

You can make a paper airplane that can double as a hang glider.

I frequently design 6 x 2 metre banners, and Xtreme can't cope with that (i have to put 0.6 x 0.2 metres instead). It's a bit of a shame because frankly, the limitation put inside Xtreme is probably completely arbitrary (I coded a whole graphics suite similar to Xtreme alone, so I'm a bit into coding ... it most probably stores everything related to units as floats or doubles, and those variable types have an - for all practical purposes - arbitrary range. I have no idea what they have been thinking.

But not meaning to bash the software - it's great on the whole

Another area which the field limitations affects is the textiles industry.
Xara would be a great, cost efficient software for textiles designers

Some of the page sizes built into Xara Xtreme don't quite match the standard ISO A Series values. e.g.

A0 is 841 x 1189mm (XX 840 x 1188mm)
A1 is 594 x 841 (XX 594 x 840mm)

only tiny differences I know, but are standards not standards?

[handrawn]

the iso standard is one thing and there again paper suppliers tend to quote a nominal size, which may always vary by the odd millimetre or so

840 x 1188 nominal is how A0 is sold almost always in my neck of the woods

ditto 594 x 840 for A1

and 420 x 594 for A2.... etc

Thank you dear all, I did my size half actual size and with double dpi
so printers can double it on their own end.
