Typographic point (pt). A typographic point is 1/72 of an inch (about 0.3528 mm), used for font sizes.
Micrometer (µm). A micrometer (micron) is one millionth of a meter, used for cells, bacteria and fiber thickness.
There are 352.778 micrometers in one typographic point.
Multiply the number of typographic points by 352.778. For example, 10 typographic points equal 3,527.78 micrometers.
One micrometer equals 0.00283465 typographic points.
4,233.33 micrometers. Other common values: 5 typographic points = 1,763.89 micrometers and 100 typographic points = 35,277.8 micrometers.
