    It depends on the DPI resolution, e.g.
    for 72 DPI it comes out 28 pixels
    for 300 DPI it comes out 118

    A 15 "TFT panel with a resolution of 1024x768 has 85 DPI, so 1cm on such a monitor is 33 pixels.

    and this should be 1 cm on the monitor or 1 cm on the print ... paint is not very suitable for this.

Topic summary

The discussion centers around converting centimeters to pixels, emphasizing that the conversion depends on the DPI (dots per inch) resolution. For example, at 72 DPI, 1 cm equals approximately 28 pixels, while at 300 DPI, it equals about 118 pixels. A specific case is mentioned where a 15" TFT panel with a resolution of 1024x768 has a DPI of 85, translating 1 cm to 33 pixels. The author seeks to create a 5x5 cm drawing in a graphics program, leading to suggestions on how to set dimensions in pixels. The conversation also touches on the importance of distinguishing between screen and print measurements.
