Hello,
What size of file folders / document wallets do you use?
I'm in the UK where you'd think the "default" would be for A4+ size, but it seems it's Foolscap size.
I bought a load of folders last year in Foolscap size as that's all there was in my local office supplies shop.
I'm now trying to make everything more portable and the Foolscap size is a little too big and unwieldy!
All my documents will fit in A4 folders which saves a lot of space in my messenger style bag. So I'm going to standardise on A4.
Oh and I decided on manila document wallets not regular file folders too!
Folders as in a piece of manila card simply folded over, and opens on 3 sides, document wallets as in opens on 1 side, with expandable sides and top flap cover.
They keep things together better when out and about yet are still very accessible for quick filing. They also stand up great in the filing crate too and I just treat them as square cut folders.
I've realised now, that in The Book when DA recommended letter size folders they are closer in size to A4 than foolscap!
Just curious to what you're all using out there!
And to think I used to think a folder was just a folder...
Best regards,
Andy.
