Changing Units Preferences
While changing the measurable units and rulers do not affect output quality, they do help
to measure information in a document consistent with the specific output device. In Un-
its preferences, you can set units of measure for general, stroke, and type-related features.
The General option (Units) sets a unit of measure for rulers, dialog boxes, and Transform,
Control, and Info panels.
