Try this example →250 ly × 2.68178 × 10¹⁹ = 6.70445 × 10²¹ pt
Try this example →Light year (ly). A light year is the distance light travels in one year, about 9.46 trillion kilometers.
Typographic point (pt). A typographic point is 1/72 of an inch (about 0.3528 mm), used for font sizes.
There are 2.68178 × 10¹⁹ typographic points in one light year.
Multiply the number of light years by 2.68178 × 10¹⁹. For example, 10 light years equal 2.68178 × 10²⁰ typographic points.
One typographic point equals 3.72886 × 10⁻²⁰ light years.
3.21814 × 10²⁰ typographic points. Other common values: 5 light years = 1.34089 × 10²⁰ typographic points and 100 light years = 2.68178 × 10²¹ typographic points.
