The value of the point varies from one system of typographical measurement to the next. For example, in the English/American system, twelve points equal one pica. In this system, points are also used to indicate type size which is expressed by the French term "corps".

In modern typesetting, a measurement of linear space and of the area of text matter used by typographers.  2, fiche 16, Anglais, - em

Record number: 16, Textual support number: 1 OBS

Because the term dates back to hand composition and the use of square metal type, most sources still refer to the em as being a square area. Thus, an em is often defined as the square of the point size of a given face. The em for a twelve-point size (i.e. a 12-point em) would be 12 points wide and 12 points deep. So called because it is the rectangular area occupied by the capital M of the typeface.  2, fiche 16, Anglais, - em

Record number: 16, Textual support number: 2 OBS

The unit em has no precise meaning without indication of its body size because the actual area of an em, expressed in points, changes with the type size. The proportion, however, always remains the same. If printers speak of ems without adding a specific body size, they usually mean the pica, or 12-point, em.  2, fiche 16, Anglais, - em
