That's very naughty of them. <g> It's also stupid, given that those who want
such paper already know it as A4 and also, quite probably, by its metric
size. I assume you'll drop them a polite note. I'm not really sure how much
attention they pay, though. When I put the link on my site, I sent them an
email message to let them know. They didn't bother to reply. They did,
however, respond to a routine request for their catalogue.

It's both. The Deutsche Institut f�r Normung (DIN) is, like ANSI, a member
organization within ISO. It was a DIN standard first and was subsequently
adopted by ISO as an international standard.
