PT to PX Converter

The PT to PX Converter is a tool designed to convert points (pt), a measurement unit commonly used in typography, print, and paper thickness, into pixels (px). In typography, the point (pt) is the smallest unit used to measure font size, line spacing (leading), and other elements on a printed page. With this free tool, you can effortlessly convert points to pixels without any hassle, ensuring precise measurements for your design needs.

There are only a few cases where the measurement unit "Point" (pt) is used, such as in typography, print, percentage points, and pints. Since it is a small unit, its use is relatively rare and is not commonly required in most scenarios.

PT to PX Conversion Table Chart

Here, you can see a comprehensive table chart showcasing a complete list of commonly used point (PT) units converted into pixels (PX). However, some units might not be included in this list. For those, you can easily use the converter tool mentioned above to obtain accurate values. The best part is that this tool is incredibly easy and efficient to use, making it a reliable option for quick and effective conversions.

Inside the Conversion Process

The converter tool operates on a straightforward logic in the background. First, it converts both PT (points) and PX (pixels) values into inches. As per standard measurements, 1 PT equals 1/72 of an inch, while 1 PX equals 1/96 of an inch. After converting these values to inches, a simple mathematical formula is applied to perform the conversion accurately. This ensures precise results every time the tool is used.

Import note:

Therefore, to convert pixel values to points, you can use the following formula:

This logic is applied in the backend to perform the conversions effectively.

For example, to convert a Point (PT) value of 10 to Pixels (PX), the tool works with the following logic:
