12" portrait is the right size for working with Word documents and PDFs.

Well, 14" would be better for letter-sized documents, but 12" is tolerably close to right.

Do you print your letters on US Legal or something like that?

No, "letter size" was a reference to US Letter, which is 8.5"x11", which has a 13.9" diagonal, so a 14" screen would be about right (a little small for a 100% display if it is 3:2, because US Letter has a 1.29:1 aspect ratio rather than 1.5:1.)

US Legal is 8.5"x14" which is closer to 3:2 (1.65:1) but also 16.4" diagonal.

Whoops, forgot about the difference was of measuring screens & paper...
