The point size that is equal to 10 characters per inch depends on the font being used. However, as a general rule, a 12-point font size is commonly used to achieve 10 characters per inch. This is because most fonts have a width of approximately 0.166 inches per character, which means that 10 characters would take up 1.66 inches. To fit this into a standard 8.5 x 11 inch document, a 12-point font size is typically used. However, it's important to note that this can vary depending on the font being used and the specific formatting requirements of your document. If you need to adjust the font size to achieve a specific number of characters per inch, you can use the "Font" menu in Microsoft Word to make the necessary changes.

1. Open Microsoft Word.
2. Click on the "Home" tab.
3. Click on the "Font" dialog box launcher (the small arrow in the bottom right corner of the "Font" group).
4. Select the font you want to use.
5. Adjust the font size until you achieve the desired number of characters per inch.
6. Click "OK" to apply the changes.
