I'm based in the U.K and I've been writing a script in US letter format, now it's ready to go out I've found a major problem in actually getting hold of US letter paper....
...but even worse...is the conflicting reports I've read that most prodco's/agents yada yada will accept A4 to a degree and even worse I shave off 6 pages from my script if I was to print it in A4 - which to me feels like cheating!
Now I could go out and get the custom paper cut to US letter size (since I cannot find a single shop that stocks US letter paper) and end up blowing a small fortune or I could just resize to A4 and buy the A4 paper AND gain 6 pages!
you'd think this decision was pretty easy huh? But I actually want to stay in US letter, BUT I guess what I'm asking is....should I be worrying so much about a difference of a couple of millimetres?? And If not, then I guess I should switch to A4 anyhow...
