Flag Dimensions (Size & Ratios)
Flag proportions are generally described as a ratio of height to width (or length) of the flag. A 1:2 flag is 1 unit tall for every 2 units wide. Many countries have a precise specification for the proportions of their flag. These run the gauntlet, from square (Switzerland) to very long (Montenegro). Other flags of the world illustrations in two versions: 2:3 ratio and 3:5 ratio. Malaysia's flag ratio is 1:2.
Example Flag Design Measurement:
1:2 ratio - If the flag's height is 90cm, therefore the length is 180cm
2:3 ratio - If your flag's height is 60cm, therefore the length is 90cm
3:5 ratio - If your flag's height is 90cm, therefore the length is 150cm
Malaysian Standard Flags Measurement:
3 Feet (Height)x 6 Feet (Length)
3 Feet/Kaki = 91.5cm, 6 Feet/Kaki = 183cm
