	Selecting a Projector Screen Format How do you choose the proper format for your needs? Screens are sized in a few standard formats: square, video format and HDTV are some of the most popular. Square For square sizes of screens the width to height ratio is generally 1:1, though there is some variation. Square screens are usually used for data presentations and overhead projectors. Video Format Video format screens have a width to height ratio of 4:3, which is the same as fullscreen movies and most television programs. If you're planning on using your screen for home theater, Video Format screens are the best option if you'll be switching equally between fullscreen and widescreen viewing. HDTV HDTV screens are the optimal format for home theater, offering the best matched fit for widescreen viewing. HDTV screens have a width to height ratio of 16:9. Even wider options include Letterbox and Widescreen; not all but a few of our screens are available in these special sizes. Back to Help Selecting The Right Screen. Still have questions?
