Default How Do I Fold This Piece Of Paper To Fit In This Envelope?
We need to know your monitor size and screen resolution so we can tell how big that envelope is.

Cool, same size as mine. That makes this easier.

Fold lengthways 1/3 of the way along the short edge of the paper.

Then fold width ways twice, making each fold a third of the way in from the end.

Mine isn't 22 inches. It's closer to 8.
An iPad?

Size isn't everything, or so I hear...

Strangely enough I am using one right now.

It never occurred to me to use it as a size reference.

I'll go take a pic so you can see.

Make A= width of envelope, B= height of envelope, X= width of paper, Y= height of paper.

Find lowest possible positive integers l,m and n,o so that X/l < A, Y/m < B, X/n < B, Y/o < A

compare l+m and n+o, and pick the lowest of the two. If equal, prefer powers of two, even numbers, odd numbers in that order. Of the chosen pair, the first number (l or n) is the amount of folds over the paper's width, and the second (m or o) the amount of folds over its height.

Is there a limit to the amount of pieces of paper you can fit into an evel ope?
Nope, with some effort you can fit anything in.

Don't forget that postage will go up the heavier it gets.... how much does your paper weigh?

Have not I provided those details? All of them are standard. I graduated from calculus and I know there needs to be SOME NUMBERS and they are all standard so it should not be hard to find the limit as X approaches the number of papers I can fit.

I am up to 7 (that's 7) pages and Asher is using an iPad, anything really is possible
I'm using the iPad because it's my job in R&D to make things for it. It's not my own, and I wouldn't buy one.

If you graduated from calculus why couldn't you figure out how to fold the ****ing thing?

Not really. You have to PAY Asher to get him to use an iPad.

I doubt that, since most of those never get sent in the first place.
