Paper size: Abbr.

Answer:

LTR

Hint:

Think of the standard dimensions used for business letters in the U.S., often paired with "8.5 x 11."

Explanation:

This clue asks for a common abbreviation for a standard paper size. "LTR" stands for "letter," which is the 8.5 x 11-inch format widely used in the U.S. and Canada. The "Abbr." in the clue signals that the answer is shortened, so you don’t spell out the full word.
