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.
Exameter
An exameter (Em) is a very large unit of length in the metric system. It equals one quintillion meters (1 exameter = 10¹⁸ meters). Exameters are used mainly in astronomy and physics to describe enormous distances, such as those between galaxies or across the universe. Because this unit is so huge, it’s not used for everyday measurements. The exameter helps scientists talk about the vast scale of space in a simpler way.
