Crown

The Crown paper size measures 15 inches (381 mm) wide by 20 inches (508 mm) high, resulting in a moderate total surface area of 300 square inches. Sometimes referred to as Crw, this versatile medium-sized sheet has been commonly used for a wide variety of documents, publications, sketches, drawings and other purposes not requiring larger expanded spreads. Its balance of compactness alongside its portrait shape suits everyday applications ranging from business letters to school worksheets to basic graphic designs and drafting. Unlike some niche specialty Imperial sizes, Crown's flexibility as a standard medium format made it a broadly useful sheet for typical printing, writing and drawing needs rather than specialized large-scale uses alone. Dating back centuries, Crown's legacy as a middle-of-the-road Imperial size stems from its ability to fit moderately sized subject matter without the bulkiness of large sheets or space constraints of smaller pages. So from basic printing to drafting to office use, Crown's dimensions lend themselves well to typical medium paper applications.
