HOW TO USE
LEGAL SIZE SHEET PROTECTORS
A legal-size document is actually the perfect document format, a full 8-1/2 x 14 inches high. Legal size papers just provide those 3 inches extra at the bottom to write on that always seem to be missing on a standard letter format, being 8.5 x 11 inch.
Nowadays, most larger printers and copy machines accept the legal-size format and binders as well as legal-sheet protectors are available so there is no real reason not to choose the legal-format when preparing documents. The extra 3 inches may also be the reason why many law and legal companies choose to work in this format and issue their forms and blankets in this large format.
The legal-size sheet protector is punched with 7 holes for use with both 3-ring and 4-ring legal size binders. At present, the 8-1/2 x 14 sheet protectors are only offered in archival-safe material so you no longer need to worry when it comes to long-term storage, they are Archival-safe and Acid Free.
