Where do you find Courier 12 pt 10-pitch? Stick to the margins, and keep your font fixed at Courier 12-point 10-pitch. To recap, don’t worry about the paper size. This by itself is a 10% difference per page! Also, don’t forget to take note that you are allowed to use double or even triple spaces between lines, or break up your page breaks for better readability.

For a 100 page script, it would approximate 100 minutes in US Letter, and 102 minutes in A4. If one page equals one minute (60 seconds) in US Letter, it would mean 61 seconds on A4. That’s an approximate difference of 2% between the two.

You might be wondering if there are any practical ramifications of using A4 over the standard US Letter format. How is A4 different from US Letter for screenplays?
