Etymology
The word B3 names a paper size in the international paper system and measures 353 by 500 millimetres. The B series gives sizes that sit 'between' the A sizes, so a helpful way to remember B3 is that it is larger than A3 but smaller than A2, which is why artists and printers often choose it for posters and large sketches.
