Hi,

it may be a bit pedantic, but what is the definition of a point on this
page?
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.16/Documentation/notation/setting-the-staff-size.html

The ratio between the points and mm is between 0.3476 and 0.3536.
I suppose it is the DTP point (0.352778 mm) but the numbers are
converted and rounded with 0.352. Right?

Is the pt or the mm value the more exact one?

And why does the number in the feta font name differ from the rounded
staff height (for the last two)?

Cheers,
Joram
