As for your description of A-size - - - 8.5 x 11 inches is not an A size that I have heard of. It is US Letter. I have never seen any reference that US Letter described as "A" size. The closest is A4, but A4 is a little narrower and a little taller. B is 11x17 inches - also called Tabloid. Super B is 13x19 inches JB4 - 257x364 mm B5 - 176x250 mm JB5 - 182x257 mm A6 - 105x148 mm A5 - 148x210 A4 - 210x297 A3 - 297x420 A3+ - 330x483 mm These sizes are according to my HP Officejet 7000 wide format printer. Since it does not print larger than Super B, I do not know the actual inches for C or E sizes. [except C6 "Envelope" - 114x162 mm]
http://www.papersizes.org/ is quite handy for looking up paper sizes. It also explains how the ISO (A4 etc.) sizes are actually defined - e.g. A0 has an area of 1 square metre, and aspect ratio of 1:sqrt(2) (which gives it the property that cutting a page in half along it's long edge results in a smaller page of the same aspect ratio), then each subsequent A-series size is derived by cutting the previous size in half.
The US ANSI A, B, C, D and E sizes are not related to the ISO A-, B- and C-series sizes. So ANSI A is nothing to do with ISO A4 (although it happens to be very roughly the same size), and ANSI C nothing to do with ISO C6.
