Thanks for that explanation, Tony.
The page layout paragraph group of the ribbon shows 85.1 as the conversion
for 3 cm, but the paragraph dialog box shows 85.05. Because of your post, I
think I know which value MS Office is using. Still, MS should fix that
discrepancy.

Generally speaking, the internal unit used is the twip (equal to one
twentieth of a point), so the, presumably accurate, 85.0397 is rounded to
85.05 (85 and one twentieth) points.
This rounding, partly at least, explains why some fine adjustments cannot be
made, or appear not to 'take'.
An interesting point came up in a docManagment post.
