On my draft sheet, I want to have an E Background sheet. I know their is A, B, C, and D background sheets, but I was wondering if their was an E. I know I can set the sheet up to size E, but that's the sheet itself, not the background. Is this possible or is D the maximum?

Using different sized sheets as backgrounds has always perplexed me.

Maybe it’s because I work in a small environment.

But I just use a custom sheet 2000w x 1500w (millimeters) with border and text block scaled to fit. An let the printers handle the scaling to suit sheet size.
We can print A4, A3, A2, A1, & A0 all from the same sheet with no problems. All drawings printed are perfectly proportioned.

It’s possible I’m missing something, is it to do with localized standards?
