How to Use Paper Weight Converter
The Paper Weight Converter translates between GSM (grams per square meter) and US basis weight systems. Enter a paper weight in any system — GSM, Bond/Writing, Text/Book, Cover, Index, or Tag — and see equivalents in all other systems. Essential for print designers, publishers, and anyone ordering paper who needs to compare weights across different measurement standards. The US system uses different base sheet sizes for each category, making direct comparison confusing without a converter.
