Why would we? All our printers and copiers take and are loaded with
letter paper. It's also what we're used to; I have a large series of
books printed on letter-sized paper, and one German-translation printed
on A4. The latter annoys me; it's the wrong size, not only with the
others, but by itself. The value of changing doesn't even come close to
the cost of changing.
