SwitchExplanation
Formula: Millimeters = Quarters × 0.25. Why: print-oriented units such as points, picas, inches, centimeters, millimeters, and Q units are normalized through the CSS reference of 96 pixels per inch.
Quarters (Q): a Japanese typography unit equal to one quarter of a millimeter, used in some print and layout workflows.
Millimeters (mm): a metric length unit used for precise print, packaging, and physical-size specifications.
This route is useful when comparing print-oriented typography measures across points, picas, millimeters, centimeters, inches, and Q units for editorial and layout work.
This conversion is purely multiplicative because both units reduce through CSS pixels using a fixed 96 px per inch baseline and explicit relative-unit assumptions where needed.
