For me that I use only offset printing to have the units in 'mm', 'cm' or 'inches' is very useful. But now the size brush is an scale logarithmic and to know the pixels dimension you need make a calculus. With this system the output will be really in px, mm, cm, inch, in function of your frame setup. americo " ... " J.
