I have found that the Hobonichi Techo Cousins has an overall size that is similar to the paper size because it is a bound planner with a lay flat binding. Second, the paper size is not necessarily the same size as the binder or cover.Ī planner binder will be bigger than than the actual planner paper to accommodate the binder rings and the closure.

When you compare the different planner sizes here are a few things to keep in mind.įirst, to make it easy to remember think this: the larger the A number, the smaller the planner. Large Planners – A4Ī large planner is typically a letter size planner or an A4 size.Ī true piece of A4 planner paper measures 8.3 by 11.7 inches vs letter paper which measures 8.5 by 11 inches. Medium size planner paper is usually around an A5 size which again measures 5.8 by 8.3 inches. Just for reference, the paper in an A6 size planner measures 4.1 by 5.8 inches. These smaller planners are often an A6 size.

The small or personal size version of planners are usually about half the size of an A5 planner paper. I outline the most common planner sizes below in inches – but you can use this handy calculator/converter to see all the A sizes in whichever unit of measure you desire. Typically, you will see planner companies offer a small, medium, and large version of their planners. When it comes to planners an A5 size planner is usually the “medium” version.
