Examples
1
Consider that a software application uses 1440 twips to define the height of a window.
Convert this height from twips to Pica.
Answer:
Given:
The length in twip is:
Length(Twip) = 1440
Formula:
The formula to convert length from twip to pica is:
Length(Pica) = Length(Twip) / 240.00000000169334
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Twip) = 1440 in the above formula.
Length(Pica) = 1440 / 240.00000000169334
Length(Pica) = 6
Final Answer:
Therefore, 1440 twip is equal to 6 pica.
The length is 6 pica, in pica.
2
Consider that a custom user interface element is sized at 720 twips.
Convert this size from twips to Pica.
Answer:
Given:
The length in twip is:
Length(Twip) = 720
Formula:
The formula to convert length from twip to pica is:
Length(Pica) = Length(Twip) / 240.00000000169334
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Length(Twip) = 720 in the above formula.
Length(Pica) = 720 / 240.00000000169334
Length(Pica) = 3
Final Answer:
Therefore, 720 twip is equal to 3 pica.
The length is 3 pica, in pica.
