Thanks in advance.

You could try making an arrangement with a European to get a European
binder and sleeves. The instruction booklets follow European paper sizes
They are European, they are ISO paper sizes. They are also used in
Brazil,
and Brazil is in America...
(which if I'm remembering right, the large ones are A4 size which is
approximately 20cm x 30cm).
A4 is 210 mm x 297 mm


And I just measured my 5561 instructions which happen to be sitting right
next to me, with a metric ruler which happens to be right in front of me.
They are definitely A4 size, so there you go, look for A4 size sheet
protectors.

What I can never remember is which way the sizes go, in other words is A5
smaller or larger? I know the US paper sizes better because I've heard them
in terms of plotter size (A size is 8.5x11, B size is 11x17, C size is
17x22, D size is 22x34, E size is 34x44, etc. Don't know how the smaller
paper sizes are specified though (is it AA for 5.5x8.5?)).
