Re: Converting Metric units to Pixels

Can you convert inches to pixels?

1 inch = 2.54 cm.

It depends on how many dots per inch you use (DPI) If you know this, you know how many pixels per inch and then just use midimagics tip

Re: Converting Metric units to Pixels

But that depends on what monitor resolution someone is using.
