Units for Character spacing

Hi All,

I was just wondering in which unit the Character spacing are indicated in XD.

I do know that they are not px, unlike the line spacing.

Thanks for your help.

We're working in milli-ems, which is 1/1000th of the point size of the font. If you're from the web world, it's similar to ems, but just divided by 1/1000. Hope that helps!

Hi Laura,

As far as I know, the units used are points which you can read more about here:

CSS Font-Size: em vs. px vs. pt vs. percent / Kyle Schaeffer

Hope it helps
