Perch

A perch is an old unit of length that is synonymous with the rod or pole, commonly used in land measurement and surveying. It measures 16.5 feet, 5.5 yards, or approximately 5.0292 meters.

The perch was widely used in England and later in the United States for measuring plots of land, especially before the widespread adoption of the metric system. It was also used to describe area when squared (square perch).

Key points:

1 perch = 16.5 feet
1 perch = 5.5 yards
1 perch ≈ 5.0292 meters
4 perches = 1 chain
40 perches = 1 furlong

While largely obsolete today, the term perch still appears in historical land deeds, legal documents, and some traditional surveying contexts.

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.
