Its D format sits between a B format and the next larger A format (just like C sits between A and the next larger B). The remaining formats fit in between all these formats, such that the [[bit-reversal_permutation#Example|sequence of formats]] A4, E4, C4, G4, B4, F4, D4, *H4, A3 is a [[geometric progression]], in which the dimensions grow by a factor <math>\sqrt[16]{2}</math> from one size to the next. However, this SIS standard does not define any size between a D format and the next larger A format (called *H in the previous example). Of these additional formats, G5 (169 × 239 mm) and E5 (155 × 220 mm) are popular in Sweden and the Netherlands for printing dissertations,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://ki.se/content/1/c6/05/90/62/Typography_en.pdf |publisher=Karolinska University Press |title=Typography and readability – a guideline |access-date=19 October 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131101001357/http://ki.se/content/1/c6/05/90/62/Typography_en.pdf |archive-date=1 November 2013}}</ref> but the other formats have not turned out to be particularly useful in practice. They have not been adopted internationally and the Swedish standard has been withdrawn. The Swedish and [[#DIN D|German D series]] basically contain the same sizes but are offset by one, i.e. DIN D4 equals SIS D5 and so on. {| class="wikitable" |+ SIS 014711 formulas,<ref>{{cite web |url=http://home.comcast.net/~tamivox/dave/IntlPaper/index.html |archive-url=https://archive.today/20140701234154/http://home.comcast.net/~tamivox/dave/IntlPaper/index.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=1 July 2014 |author-first=Dave |author-last=Barber |title=International paper sizes.
