A further intermediate size, foolscap or Italian flag (c. 430mm x 313–330mm) is also a possibility. The names derive from the watermarks commonly used, although papers of these sizes are also found with different watermarks. Where a paper has a pot or crown watermark, it is assumed to be of that size; otherwise the tentative size has been arrived at by identifying the smallest of these sheets that could have been used to produce surviving examples of the print.
