points-to-pixels

Arguments: point-size

Returns a pixel size that is equivalent to the specified point size. The argument and returned value may be any real number. There are approximately 72 points in an inch, but since the actual monitor size is unknown, the point size may not reflect reality very closely.

See also pixels-to-points for additional notes, and stream-units-per-inch.
