Dimensions 8.5 x 11-inch?

["Rob Hudson" <caveatrob -at- gmail -dot- com>]

Hi all,

I'm trying to instruct students about how to use dimensions (e..g
"8.5x11") and I see that the Chicago Manual of Style uses a character
different from the "x" to express "by." Can anyone confirm this
character or direct me to the appropriate section in the CMS about
formatting dimensions?
