Don't overlook the simple solution of hanging files in a file cabinet. They are
11.75 inches wide, so the instructions fit just fine. You can use manila folders
inside the hanging files if you want to subdivide by size. This has the added
advantage of not having to fiddle with sliding the directions in and out of sheet
protectors (which can be annoying). A number of different carrying cases exist for
hanging files, if you want portability.
If you do use sheet protectors, remember that you may want to special-order the
"A4" size from the UK if you want them not to stick out at the top. And get A4 size
binders, as well.
Good luck!
