Examples
1
Consider that a font size is set to 12 points in a document.
Convert this size from points to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in point is:
Length(Point) = 12
Formula:
The formula to convert length from point to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(Point) / 57023.999976069055
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Point) = 12 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 12 / 57023.999976069055
Length(Chains) = 0.000210437710526
Final Answer:
Therefore, 12 point is equal to 0.000210437710526 ch.
The length is 0.000210437710526 ch, in chains.
2
Consider that a headline is designed with a font size of 24 points.
Convert this size from points to Chains.
Answer:
Given:
The length in point is:
Length(Point) = 24
Formula:
The formula to convert length from point to chains is:
Length(Chains) = Length(Point) / 57023.999976069055
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Point) = 24 in the above formula.
Length(Chains) = 24 / 57023.999976069055
Length(Chains) = 0.000420875421052
Final Answer:
Therefore, 24 point is equal to 0.000420875421052 ch.
The length is 0.000420875421052 ch, in chains.

Point
A point is a unit of length used primarily in typography and printing. One point is equivalent to 1/72 of an inch or approximately 0.3528 millimeters.
The point is defined as a standard unit of measurement for font sizes, line spacing, and other typographic elements in printed materials.
Points are widely used in the printing and graphic design industries to specify the size of type, spacing, and other design elements. The unit ensures precision and consistency in the presentation of text and graphics.
Chains
A chain is a unit of length used primarily in land surveying and agriculture. One chain is equivalent to 66 feet or approximately 20.1168 meters.
The chain is defined as 66 feet, which is historically based on the length of a chain used in surveying practices and land measurement.
Chains are commonly used in land surveying for measuring distances, particularly in the United States and the United Kingdom. The unit is useful for tasks such as plotting and dividing land and has historical significance in the development of surveying techniques.
