The nominal size sold here is 14.5" (and the stuff in boxes I have here
measures 14 5/8") including the edges. And that makes sense, because
132 columns is nominally 13.2" (at 10 chars/inch pitch), plus a little
for margins, plus 1/2" each side. I have seen listing paper described
as 14x11, but it's actually about 14.5" x 11"; I've seen 11 x 15 1/16"
(in a catalogue); I don't remember ever seeing anything as wide as 15
7/8".
