'Paperback (B format)' means that the size of the book is 198mm x 129mm. This information has been provided by the publisher of the book.

You may also see paperback editions of books advertised as 'A format'. This means that the size of the book is 178mm x 110mm.

so...... A is the typical paperback, and B is the long format paperback? or is B the typical and A is a shorter format?
