The term “broadsheet” is used both to refer to a generic paper size, and to specific types of publications which have historically been produced on broadsheets. The classic example of a broadsheet is a wide-circulation newspaper, with the broadsheet size being preferred by many newspaper publishers. Newspapers which are intended to act as major news authorities are classically printed on broadsheet-sized pieces of paper.
In printing a broadsheet is a sheet of paper that is 17 x 22 inches. A broadsheet also refers to any type of large flier or advertisement. A broadsheet size publication is one with a finished size (no matter what size of paper is used) of a broadsheet. Half of a broadsheet is tabloid size. A quarter of a broadsheet is letter size.
