Hello, Arun,

I think you'll find that using 72 pixels per inch (or the equivalent in metric) will get you close to what you want. A pixel or dot is relative and in printing the dpi (dots per inch) are specified for halftones in a given publication.

Plus, when viewed in a web browser, you never know how the user has "text size" set, so there are really no guarantees how the page will look to any given user. The user needs that adjustment to walk the tightrope between their visual acuity and a useful amount of information on the screen and their physical screen size. I have become acutely aware of this (a) as I age and (b) since a friend of mine had an accident that affected their vision.

Cheers,

Richard

Hi,

I want to use Libre Office to write posts to my blogger blog. I write
the posts using Libre office  and save them as html file and use a
simple desktop client i wrote  to post to blogger.

  My Blog post body width is 570 pixels wide. I want to set the
horizontal ruler in my LibreOffice to pixels instead of cm,mm and
inches in such a way that it looks similar to my blog post's body.

'pixels' is not a defined way to measure something, because you will not
know how many pixels you have on an inch (or cm)

DPI is, (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dots_per_inch)
