I work for a company where we have big plotters. The plotters have 20lb bond paper that comes in rolls up to 36 inches wide (about 91 cm) by 150 feet (a little over 45 meters). The supply people purchase them from Staples, but I would imagine they would be available at other office stores. The rolls can be fairly pricey ($35 a roll or more), though. I know a store that, in the past, carried uncut sheets of bond paper - usually in colors. Those sheets were probably for feet by five or six feet. I never bought any, so I can't be sure. They have downsized their store recently and no longer carry it. There have been MANY times I have been tempted to use an old plot to fold something, but since most of what gets plotted is proprietary, I am sure it would be highly frowned upon. Dee
