Detailed explanation-1: -In computing, font sizes are also measured as px (pixels) and in pc (pica).
Detailed explanation-2: -The digital way to measure font sizes is in pixels. Some word processors such as Microsoft Word still use points as units of measurement for fonts. This is because some of the time, the documents are printed and converted to physical documents, so it makes sense to use points.
Detailed explanation-3: -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-4: -The correct answer is 1/72. A font is often measured in pt (points). Points dictate the height of the lettering. There are approximately 72 points in one inch or 2.54 cm.
Detailed explanation-5: -The em size of a font is equal to its point size. In digital typefaces, one point is equal to 1/72 of an inch. Twelve points make one pica. Six picas make one inch.
