What paper size to use?

What paper size do I use to print the pdf file? Is it A4? Thanks.

I believe it uses ANSI letter size 8.5" x 11" as the standard for it. With the A4 it might run into some issues on longer tunes since it's narrower width of 8.26".

Most of the pdf's that I've saved generated two strips per page, though on some of the longer tunes (final strips that were about 3-5 feet in length) it did 3 strips which took almost the whole width. If that ends up being an issue on A4 sized you might have to split a longer tune into two or more pieces so it would only generate two strip lengths per page and then I expect it wouldn't be an issue with that paper size.

Oh, thanks for the reply, Alex.

Hi,
I use A3+ highresolution 270 gr en print 4 stripes after imported the pdf in my Adobe Indesign and print on my Canon A3+ printer with an enlargement of 1 %. Than it fixes exactly in the musicbox. Cut the strokes curved and glue them together.
