A reference dimension is a dimension on an engineering drawing provided for information only. [1] Reference dimensions are provided for a variety of reasons and are often an accumulation of other dimensions that are defined elsewhere [2] (e.g. on the drawing or other related documentation). These dimensions may also be used for convenience to ...

The contemporary computer PostScript pica is exactly 1 ⁄ 6 of an inch or 1 ⁄ 72 of a foot, i.e. 4.2 3 mm or 0.1 6 in. Publishing applications such as Adobe InDesign and QuarkXPress represent pica measurements with whole-number picas left of a lower-case p, followed by the points number, for example: 5p6 represents 5 picas and 6 points, or 5 ...
