Daniela Dib Argentina ASKER 00:03 Dec 4, 2012  Muchas gracias, Raúl! Raúl Waldman Argentina Traducir medidas 00:02 Dec 4, 2012  Es siempre correcto traducir las medidas inglesas a nuestro sistema (métrico). En general se usa poner la medida métrica primero, seguida de la inglesa entre paréntesis o corchetes. No hace falta poner 'equivale...'. En tu caso quedaría: "documento de 21,59 x 27,94 cm (8 1/2 x 11")". Daniela Dib Argentina ASKER 23:42 Dec 3, 2012  En ese mismo documento aparece el peso de una persona en lbs y oz, para lo cual puse: 6 lb 10 oz [equivale a aproximadamente 3 kg] Entonces, para mantener la consistencia e incluir la medida en cm, voy a poner: documento de 8 ½ x 11ʼʼ [equivale a aproximadamente 21,59 x 27,94 cm]. ¿sigue estando desacertado? Raúl Waldman Argentina Hay que hacer la conversión 22:52 Dec 3, 2012  Al contrario: en Argentina debemos poner 'tamaño carta' o la medida en cm, o ambas cosas. Daniela Dib Argentina ASKER 22:34 Dec 3, 2012  Gracias, Raúl, Entonces podría dejar 8 1/2 x 11 pulgadas directamente? (sin mencionar "carta") Rosa Paredes Canada @asker 20:00 Dec 3, 2012  En relación a tu pregunta sobre si es necesario hacer la conversión, la respuesta es si, es necesario.
