I have exactly that problem when one of our suppliers uses US paper format for the diagram files that he sends us. I have to shrink the diagrams (software wise) so that the 216 mm width will fit my 210 mm paper.

I've been doing this for a few years now. You might get the odd comment from someone who receives your printouts that they had to slice off the top or bottom in order to make it fit into a file folder or that they couldn't get it to stack properly. Also stapling those pages with others that are of a different format will also leave extra hanging out at the bottom.

Staples has a deal on Hammermill A4 paper, $57.99 for a case of 10 reams. It's good multiuse paper suitable for use in inkjet and officejet printers as well as for other uses. I'd rather get that. What kind of difficulty, if any, might result from me using A4 paper in a "letter" world? (For one thing, my son is in his last semester of community college and may have to write a paper or two.)
