    A lot of paper is wasted because we tend to use standard “document sized” paper (A4, US Letter).

    For content that is not designed to fill the page (poster or whatever) it will fill a random amount of the final page and on average half of that sheet will be wasted.

    If smaller paper sizes were used more often it could save a fair bit.

      Smaller paper sizes would waste a lot more paper because the margins would be a bigger portion of the sheet.
