Key facts:



  • 1 point = 1/72 inch ≈ 0.3528 mm



  • 12 points = 1 pica



  • Used universally in typesetting, desktop publishing, and graphic design



  • Measures font sizes, leading (line spacing), and other typographic details



The point system helps designers and printers maintain precise and consistent text layouts across various media.



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.
