Yes, you are abosuletly correct, and thanks for pointing it out. I am sorry
for being so inaccurate in what I said. What I normally do when using the ppi
for calculation like this is to approximate and give someone just some crude
idea of the magnitude of size we are talking about.

dot of its default size in any of 600 positions in each linear inch of

to another. >>

Yes. Thank you again!
