Print CSS tips
For print CSS, use pt (points) — the traditional typographic unit. 1pt = 1/72 inch. At 96 DPI: 1pt = 1.333px. This tool converts both.
Print body text is typically 10–12pt (13–16px). Headings 14–18pt. Use the pt converter to verify your screen CSS will look correct on paper.
Margins and page sizes in print CSS use cm, mm, or in. For padding and spacing within the content area, pt is standard and compatible across all print browsers.
When generating PDFs via wkhtmltopdf or Puppeteer, pixel values depend on the DPI setting. At 96 DPI, 1in = 96px = 72pt. Convert your values accordingly.
