Millimeter to Em (12pt) (Millimeter to Em (12pt))
Result
0.2362204724 Em (12pt)
Formula
Em (12pt) = Millimeter × 0.2362204724
1 Millimeter = 0.2362204724 Em (12pt), and 1 Em (12pt) = 4.233333333 Millimeter.
In CSS and desktop publishing, 1 inch = 72 points = 96 pixels, so 1 px = 0.75 pt. The em is relative to the current font size; this converter assumes a 12 pt base.
Worked examples
- 1 Millimeter × 0.2362204724 = 0.23622047 Em (12pt)
- 10 Millimeter × 0.2362204724 = 2.3622047 Em (12pt)
- 100 Millimeter × 0.2362204724 = 23.622047 Em (12pt)
Common mistakes
- CSS pixels are reference units, not physical screen pixels; high-density displays draw several device pixels per CSS pixel.
- An em depends on the font size it is used in. Change the base and every em value changes.
