Default Changing the measurement units in Picture Manager to centimetres

Does anyone know if you can change the measurement units from pixels to
something more useful like centimetres or inches?

For Word, Tools | Options | General and choose the measurement unit from the
drop down list. Is this what you want to do?

I don't think it's possible in Picture Manager. However you can download a
converter at
http://www.classical-webdesigns.co.u...chconvert.html which
might be of some use to you.

The "inch" or "centimeter" is an arbitrary dimension as far as Picture
Manager is concerned, ONLY pixels is a useful measurement of image
properties.
