Paper sheet calculators
The first online paper calculators we’ll cover in this article focus on sheet calculations. These free and easy sheet calculators can help you determine:
- M-weight – Calculate the weight of 1,000 sheets (M-weight) of a sheet size using length, width, and basis weight inputs.
- Basis weight – Find the basis weight for a ream of paper based on its grade, size, and weight in grams per square meter (GSM).
- Grammage – Determine the weight in grams per square meter (GSM) for a ream of paper based on its grade, size, and basis weight.
- Pages per inch (PPI) – Estimate the number of pages per inch of paper (PPI) based on the sheet’s thickness (caliper).

Paper roll calculators
Next, let’s explore the online tools available to help you estimate the paper rolls you’ll need. These free and easy paper roll calculators can help you determine the following:
- Linear footage – This linear footage calculator estimates linear footage based on the basis weight, roll width, and roll weight.
- Linear yardage – Similar to linear footage, the linear yardage calculator works with basis weight, roll width, and roll weight inputs.
- MSI – Easily estimate the thousands of square inches (MSI) in a paper roll by selecting the grade and inputting the basis and roll weight in the MSI calculator.
- MSF – Do you need to know the thousands of square feet (MSF) in a roll of paper? Select the grade and provide the basis weight and roll weight for an accurate answer.

Paper pricing calculators
Finally, let’s talk pricing. There are several ways to calculate the price of paper online. The following paper pricing calculators estimate all the costs you need, including:
- Price per MSI – Determine the U.S. dollar price per MSI for a roll of paper. Simply select your paper grade and enter the basis weight and price per pound.
- Price per MSF – The MSF calculator lets you estimate the U.S. dollar price per MSF for a paper roll by choosing your paper grade and inputting the basis weight and price per pound.
- Price per linear foot – Input MSF in U.S. dollars for a roll of paper to convert it to its linear foot price.
- Price per linear yard – This linear yardage calculator converts the MSF U.S. dollar price for a paper roll to its linear yard price.
