What exact size are standard formats F1 and F2, in inches? PS7 doesn't seem
to have them listed.

Thanks!

Well assuming you are American, here is some info maybe.

Never heard of it. Funny site is also this one. Funny because I had so
much critique about the American sizes, read and realize I am Dutch LOL

Call them up and ask. Just tell them someone commissioned you to create an
ad and you would like to know the specifications...in English! ;-) I've
done ads for a couple newspapers including the New York Times and was always
given resolution requirements and dimensions in inches.

I've been in the biz for, Jesus, 18 years now, built ads that appeared all
over North and South America, the EU, China, Australia and even Africa and
never heard of such a thing.

Ask them.

It may be that they have a template for their ads and that is a label
for a particular size ad.

Have you all got tunnel vision?
F1 is "formula one". Currently dominated by "RED" cars.

As for paper? Nah, it must be a troll. Not a single paper supplier in
Australia or Birmingham (UK) has a clue on "F1" paper size. I don't
speak American so I never bother to ask but I think they haven't a clue
either... Not even about paper size! ;-)

Cant remember for sure but i thought these are references to newspaper web
printing press sizes.
By web i dont mean the WWW but print presses.
As i say not 100% sure on that.

Nor anywhere in the South or South West UK that I can find. The only
printing reference if you Google is for a Canon printer - guess what
F1 and F2 are? Look at the top of your keyboard <g>

Well Doug I worked in America for about 5 years and I did not see that
size pop up.......but I would advice the OP to go to a Ferrari garage.
They probably have standards for F1 to F4.
