A point is a unit of measurement There were two different definitions for "point" in common usage before the advent of computers The one in use in the Anglo-Saxon printing world was the "pica point" with 72 27 points per inch ( 2 85pt /mm ), while the one used in Europe was the didot point with 62 2/3 points per 23 566mm ( 2 66pt/mm or 67 54pt/inch ) These two points were so arranged that text at a given point-size would have approximately the same cap-height in both systems, the didot point would have extra white-space above the capitals to contain the accents present in most non-English Latin based scripts This has the interesting side effect that a font designed for European usage should have a smaller proportion of the vertical em given over to the text body I believe that computer fonts tend to ignore this, so presumably european printers now set with more leading As far as I can tell, computers tend to work in pica points (but this may be because I am in the US)
