What does REAM mean in Scrabble?
noun
printing
A standard quantity of paper, traditionally five hundred sheets.
A ream traces to the paper trade's old system of bundling stock for wholesale handling, well before mills standardised sizes and weights. Printers and office suppliers still price and pack by this same count, even though people also speak of a ream of documentation to mean any oversized stack of unrelated material. In casual speech, calling something a ream signals more volume than anyone wants to sort through.
How REAM is used
Common in offices and printing; the loose sense of an excessive quantity is informal.
