About this size

A6 is the smallest A-size most design work uses. It is the ISO standard postcard format in metric regions (the equivalent of US 6 by 4 in postcards), and it fits in most wallet sleeves and pocket pouches without folding.

At this size, layout discipline matters. There is no room for a layered hierarchy; the design has to pick one focal element and let the rest of the canvas serve it.

  • Small notes
  • Pocket prints

Pro tips

  1. 1 The standard ISO postcard size in metric regions. The equivalent of the US 6 by 4 in postcard format.
  2. 2 Fits in most wallet sleeves and pocket pouches. Pocket portability is the format's defining property.
  3. 3 Layout discipline matters. Pick one focal element; the canvas is too small to layer competing information.
