Talk:Twip

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"A twip (which stands for Twentieth of a Point) is a typographical measurement. It is also used as the default measurement in Visual Basic where 15 twips is equal to 1 pixel. A twip is 1/1440 of an inch when derived from the PostScript point at 72 to the inch, as opposed to the printer's point at 72.27 to the inch."

The above needs clarification. One could conclude that a pixel is 15/1440 of an inch - which is not correct. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 211.29.233.112 (talk)
