General Discussion / Re: Page sizes?

Exactly :)!! I know A4 shrinks down to the B6 size. I'm trying to figure out what paper to order / use to get the specific size 5 x 7 1/2, if it even exists. *A4 just seems to be the closest.

General Discussion / Page sizes?

« on: December 01, 2020, 03:36:50 PM »

     Howdy, everyone :))! I'm not sure if this is a dumb question or not, so please forgive me. I'm completely new to actually formatting / making manga.

     I decided to whip out my ruler and measure some manga that I liked the size of. That way, I would have an idea of what size page to draw on before cropping down. All of the manga that I measured & liked were 5 by 7 1/2 inches, though, and I can't figure out what size paper that would be. The closest I've found is A4, which would crop down to B6, which is around 5 by 7 inches. What type of paper crops down to 5 by 7 1/2 inches? Or am I misunderstanding and doing something wrong?

Thank you everyone :))

Coryn, It's for this year's Silent Manga Audition! I picked the theme crying because I thought it would be the easiest.

How's it going everyone? I'm new here, and I'm also a new manga artist.

My name is MARNSOA, and I'm a 19 year old college student from the US. I just started making comics digitally, and It's... a process. Not really sure what I'm doing like 99% of the time, but button mashing seems to get the job done. I'm currently working on a one-shot as a contest entry, and it will (hopefully) be my first completed manga in January.

I'd love to use this forum to meet new people also interested in creating manga, so feel free to reach out and talk about your works :))
