A7 Paper Size
A7 is 74 × 105 mm — half an A6 and a quarter of an A5. At 300 DPI it's 874 × 1240 pixels. It's used for gift tags, invitation inserts, thank-you cards, and small product cards. Its compact size means it prints eight-up on a single A4 sheet — cost-effective for small-run card production.

Design Tips
- →Eight A7 cards fit on a single A4 sheet — impose them in a 2×4 grid with 3 mm gutters and crop marks for efficient print production.
- →Keep text minimal: A7 is too small for paragraphs. One headline, a short URL or QR code, and your logo is a proven layout.
- →For gift tags: punch a hole 5 mm from the top edge, centred — allow clearance in your design so the punched area doesn't cut through critical content.
- →At 74 × 105 mm, any background image should be sourced at least 1200 px wide to avoid upscaling artefacts at 300 DPI.

What is A7 size in mm?+
A7 is 74 × 105 mm (7.4 × 10.5 cm, or 2.91 × 4.13 inches). It's half the area of A6 and follows the same 1:√2 aspect ratio as all ISO A-series sizes.
What is A7 used for?+
A7 is used for gift tags, mini greeting cards, thank-you card inserts, event ticket stubs, and small product hang tags. Its small size makes it ideal for packaging inserts and any application where a compact printed item is needed.
What is A7 in pixels at 300 DPI?+
A7 at 300 DPI is 874 × 1240 pixels. At 150 DPI it's 437 × 620 px. At 96 DPI it's 280 × 397 px. For print output, use 300 DPI. For screen-only digital cards, 96 DPI is sufficient.
Is A7 bigger than a business card?+
Slightly. A7 is 74 × 105 mm; a US business card is 88.9 × 50.8 mm. A7 is narrower but twice as tall, so it holds more content while still fitting a wallet or a card holder — which is why it suits loyalty cards and RSVP inserts.
How many A7 cards fit on an A4 sheet?+
Eight. A7 is three halvings down from A4 (A4 → A5 → A6 → A7), and each halving doubles the count. Printing eight-up on A4 and guillotining is the standard way to produce short runs of A7 cards cheaply.
