I'll go the other way.  We have a company that only does B size.
Can't read a thing and you can't fit much of anything on them.  We
use C size and love it.  It can easily fit into a normal binder when
folded, is easy to read and you can reduce the number of pages
needed.

JoAnn,
   I'm with Jack, keep the B-size, they are almost always readable
and you can
fold them to fit in binders very easily. I worked for a company in
the past that all
they wanted was D-size, what a pain.... Just a 3 or 4 page
schematic was like the
Sunday paper. I finally got them used to C-size and was working
on getting them
to B's. Then I left and got a real job....... Now I think they are using
Kleenex......
Just kidding...
Later
