Thanks very much. But, as you certainly know, the size of a pixel is computed as
screen width in mm / screen width in pixels and screen height in mm / screen height in pixels.

So the next question: How do I get the screen dimensions in mm (or any other length unit) ?

In Google... "screen dpi site:developer.apple.com"

First hit: <http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1217.html>

Thank you very much for this link.

Same with my Studio Display: IOKit says 330 x 270 mm. I think 338 x 271.

Kind regards

Gerriet.
