Pixels.

This demo uses Screen.PixelsPerInch resolution.

So, if you have page width defined in inches, pass here

Round(SizeInches*Screen.PixelsPerInch).

As I can see in MS Word,

A4 = 8.27" x 11.69"

Letter (is it US Letter?) = 8.5" x 11"

In my tests, this code does not work with URLs.

May be it works for other kinds of links
