Oops. I guess you're right (I grew up with the metric system and 
European letter sizes..). Unfortunately this insight doesn't solve my 
problem. However, it means that SO's horizontal ruler does not measure 
correctly - and the placement of letters on the screen is screwed up. I 
wonder whether this is due to X or StarOffice?
Thanks for your help,

Daniel
