You can use Visual C++'s TwipsPerPixelX and TwipsPerPixelY routines to convert from pixels to twips. A twip is a screen-independent measurement unit that is used to ensure the placement and proportion of screen elements in your screen application are the same on all display systems. A twip is a unit of screen measurement equal to 1/20 of a printer's point. There are approximately 1440 twips to a logical inch or 567 twips to a logical centimeter.
