Perhaps this will do as a workaround:

570 pixels is 35.758594108 pica according to:
<http://www.unitconversion.org/typography/pixels-x-to-picas-printer-s-conversion.html>


Note that, right-click your horizontal ruler & set to pica. Then set
your margins etc accordingly.

You can experiment with:

and perhaps even use inches if you wish (570px=~5.9375in).
