Narrative:
Flight xx cle to yyz, began brany four arrival and then cleared for a profile descent runway 24L and right. Reviewed procedures and set commercial charts to my right side on flight bag. Crossed brany at 13,000', next fix 25 DME from yyz at 11,000 250 KTS. Having my approach plates opened I misread the toronto profile for runway 33, which is 25 DME at 10,000 and 250 KTS. Controller asked our altitude and we read back 10,000. He advised us that we should be at 11,000. Captain also misread profile for runway 33.
