Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A column width of 8.43 means that 8.43 of the default font’s characters fit into a cell. The default font for the worksheet is the font that is assigned to the Normal style. Excel 2000 uses a factory default font of Arial 10. Changing Printer DPI can affect the font metrics and can adjust the column widths.
