Default What point size is equal to 10 characters per inch?

You will need to use a monospaced font such as Courier New to make any sense
of that requirement.

Hey Doug,

Thanks for the response. I will be using Times New Roman with just
about every letter in the English language. FYI, I'm writing a paper
and the text requirement is expressed in CPI instead of points.

Thanks,

Hi Kyle,

With most fonts, letters have a variable width based on the letter.
So, 10 i's will be considerably more narrow than 10 w's. To answer
your question, I would need to know what font and what letters you
are using.

Doug
