Hi Harm,

*The 3.865234375 is the font size (in millimetres!)*
Converting this into pt (1 inch = 72.27 pt = 25.4 mm), you'll end up with
the standard 11pt fontsize.
These font sizes are always (!) absolute and never depend on
global-staff-size etc.

*The 1.1950157480315 is the running width of the character*

HTH,
Torsten
