Default A4 die cutting machines

Would someone be kind enough to tell me what die cutting machines will take an A4 die? Does the Cuttlebug? I don't know how big an A4 is. :confused:

Thanks much,
Chris

Im trying to think... and since its very late here i will take a guess

this is what i know.

A-2 is 4 1/4" X 5 1/2"

and

A-6 is 4 1/2" X 6"

so... Id guess it to be a die somewhere in the middle of those two sizes, but that is a I should have already been asleep kind of a guess...

and if its correct I'd imagine most of them would, cuttlebug, big shot, ( but, it depends on how thick the die is) can you link to the die you are considering, its possible someone knows that brand and what machines it works in...

Did you see the reference to A4 on a UK, European or Australian site?

North America is the only place that does not use ISO paper sizes. To us in the UK, A4 is a paper size. It's very similar to your letter size paper (8.5 x 11). I've never heard of dies being referred to as A anything though so I may be on the wrong track here. Can you show us the die you're needing to know about?

We (UK/European etc) find it very confusing when we first encounter talk of A2 embossing folders etc because to us A2 is HUGE (the area of four sheets of A4 paper so roughly four of your standard letter size pages)!
