Link

A link is a traditional unit of length used primarily in land surveying. It is defined as exactly 7.92 inches or approximately 20.1168 centimeters.

The link originated from Gunter's chain, a 66-foot measuring device introduced in 1620 by English mathematician Edmund Gunter. This chain was divided into 100 equal parts, each measuring one link. The link became a standard unit in English-speaking countries for surveying and land measurement.

Key Facts:

1 link = 7.92 inches
1 link ≈ 20.1168 cm
25 links = 1 rod (16.5 feet)
100 links = 1 chain (66 feet)
1,000 links = 1 furlong (660 feet)

While the link has largely fallen out of general use, it remains a part of historical surveying practices and is still referenced in some legal and cadastral documents.

Twip

A twip (short for twentieth of a point) is a very small unit of length used in digital typography and computer graphics. It equals 1/20 of a typographic point, or 1/1440 of an inch.

Key facts:

1 twip = 1/20 point = 1/1440 inch ≈ 0.01764 millimeters
Used in software and digital layout to specify very fine measurements for text, spacing, and graphics
Helps achieve high precision in formatting and display, especially in word processors and graphic design programs

Twips allow for detailed control over layout and formatting beyond what whole points can provide, ensuring smooth and precise rendering on screens and printers.
