Hello all!

A trade edition is usually a smaller or standard paper size edition of the
same text. Reader's Digest, for example, often publishes several novels
together in a larger than usual paperback--the size is such that they
haven't had to cut down the paper from it's stock size, which usually makes
it slightly cheaper than the traditional paperback size.
