Detailed explanation-1: -In digital typefaces, one point is equal to 1/72 of an inch.
Detailed explanation-2: -A unit is a way of measuring font size, line height, line length, margins, or virtually anything in the practice of typography. Multiple units are in existence, including many historic ones, but points, pixels, and ems (or rems) are the units most relevant to today’s digital typesetting needs.
Detailed explanation-3: -1 pica (Postscript) = 4.233333333 mm = 12 points (Postscript) 1 cicero = 4.531 mm = 12 points (Didot)
Detailed explanation-4: -You can use points (pt) and picas (pc) to set the font-size in print stylesheets. Both these units have a fixed value of 0.0138 inches and 0.1666 inches respectively.
Detailed explanation-5: -At 0.375 mm, it was slightly bigger than today’s PostScript or DTP point which measures 0.353 mm . So if you enter a 10 pt font size in Microsoft Word or Adobe InDesign, you define that your font will have a size of 3.53 mm.
