From the QBP Catalog :

A = the distance from the bottom of the extension to the minimum insertion mark.
B = the distance from the top of the stem to the minimum insertion mark.

In real world terms,if you put a quill stem in all the way, then pulled it out to the min. insertion mark, this would be the A measurement.
