How many inches in a "pt"?
jknapp1005 11.08.2006 18:05:01
I am trying to set the row height for tables. It is easy to set the column
width, because that is in inches. But row height? Whose idea was it to create
that in pts? You can only guess what that is supposed to be.

You can type in a row height in inches and Word will convert to points.
There are 72 points to the inch.
