About this size

Statement is what a Letter sheet becomes when folded in half. That makes it the default booklet size in North American workflows: print on Letter, fold once, get a Statement-sized signature.

It is also a comfortable size for invitations and small-format handouts. Larger than a postcard, small enough to feel personal, fits in a standard A6 envelope with a bit of margin.

  • Handouts
  • Small pages

Pro tips

  1. 1 The natural booklet size when folded from a single Letter sheet. Most short-run zines and event programs assume this.
  2. 2 A practical format for half-page invitations and small mailings. Fits standard small envelopes without custom sizing.
  3. 3 For booklets, design the spread (two Statement pages side by side) before cutting it into individual pages. Layout reads differently in spread context.
