The Graphics' industry standard is width by height (width x height). Meaning that when you write your measurements, you write them from your point of view, beginning with the width.

How are dimensions listed in order?

Here are some popular examples: Boxes: Length x Width x Height (See below) Bags: Width x Length (The width is always the dimension of the bag opening.) Labels: Length x Width.

Does length or width come first for frames?

The orientation is dictated by which measurement has the greater value, and the standard format for denoting size is always width first, then height, or WxH. For instance, frame with the measurements of 8″ X 10″– the first number being “Width” and the second being “Height”– is portrait.
