Hint: To calculate the envelope weight from a sheet size, divide the number of envelopes cut from a given size into the sheet weight per M.
Example: A sheet size 22 x 34, Sub 24, weighs 96 lbs. per thousand sheets (expressed as 96M). The chart tells you sheet size 22 x 34 yields six No. 10 envelopes. Dividing 6 into 96M equals 16 lbs. which is the number of pounds used to make 1M No. 10 envelopes cut from this size and substance.
