grain
The position of the paper fibers. During the manu-
facturing process, most fibers are oriented with their
length running parallel to the long dimension of the
cut sheet. Once manufactured, paper can be cut into
sheets with the grain running either parallel to the
long dimension of the paper (long grain) or perpen-
dicular to the long dimension (short grain.)
This characteristics (“Long” or “Short”) is usually
specified on the paper package. The dimensions
listed on a paper ream list the long grain dimension
last. If short grain is specified on a ream of letter-size
paper, the size reads 11 in. by 8 1/2 in.
