Font size

[Gregg]

Does the font size in Microsoft Word XP refer to the size
of the point or the size of the pitch?

The number of pixels per character which I regard as the point size. IOW,
larger letter or character equals larger points. Pitch may change it
slightly. This is my understanding; other ideas ?
