To convert typographic points to light years, multiply the value by 3.72886 × 10⁻²⁰. To go the other way, multiply light years by 2.68178 × 10¹⁹ to get typographic points.
| Typographic Points (pt) | Light Years (ly) |
|---|---|
| 1 pt | 3.72886 × 10⁻²⁰ ly |
| 5 pt | 1.86443 × 10⁻¹⁹ ly |
| 10 pt | 3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁹ ly |
| 25 pt | 9.32216 × 10⁻¹⁹ ly |
| 50 pt | 1.86443 × 10⁻¹⁸ ly |
| 100 pt | 3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁸ ly |
| 250 pt | 9.32216 × 10⁻¹⁸ ly |
| 500 pt | 1.86443 × 10⁻¹⁷ ly |
| 1,000 pt | 3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁷ ly |
| 2,500 pt | 9.32216 × 10⁻¹⁷ ly |
| 5,000 pt | 1.86443 × 10⁻¹⁶ ly |
| 10,000 pt | 3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁶ ly |
| 100,000 pt | 3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁵ ly |
| 1,000,000 pt | 3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁴ ly |
25 pt × 3.72886 × 10⁻²⁰ = 9.32216 × 10⁻¹⁹ ly
Try this example →250 pt × 3.72886 × 10⁻²⁰ = 9.32216 × 10⁻¹⁸ ly
Try this example →Typographic point (pt). A typographic point is 1/72 of an inch (about 0.3528 mm), used for font sizes.
Light year (ly). A light year is the distance light travels in one year, about 9.46 trillion kilometers.
There are 3.72886 × 10⁻²⁰ light years in one typographic point.
Multiply the number of typographic points by 3.72886 × 10⁻²⁰. For example, 10 typographic points equal 3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁹ light years.
One light year equals 2.68178 × 10¹⁹ typographic points.
3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁷ light years. Other common values: 100 typographic points = 3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁸ light years and 10,000 typographic points = 3.72886 × 10⁻¹⁶ light years.
