Paper weight equivalence table Use this table to determine approximate equivalent points in weight specifications other than U.S. bond weight. For example, to determine the equivalent of 20-lb U.S. bond-weight paper in U.S. cover-weight paper, locate the bond weight (in row 3, second column) and scan across the row to the cover weight (in the fourth column). The equivalent is 28-b media. Shaded areas indicate a standard weight for that grade.

Paper weight equivalence table
Use this table to determine approximate equivalent points in weight specifications other than
U.S. bond weight. For example, to determine the equivalent of 20-lb U.S. bond-weight paper in
U.S. cover-weight paper, locate the bond weight (in row 3, second column) and scan across the
row to the cover weight (in the fourth column). The equivalent is 28-b media. Shaded areas
indicate a standard weight for that grade.
Metric Sizes
For metric-size paper (A4), use this method to determine basis weight:
Take 16 sheets of A4 paper and weigh them. One square meter of paper contains approximately
16 A4 size sheets. Compare this weight to the appropriate weight in the preceding table.
