Type	Description
DocumentLayoutUnit	One of the DocumentLayoutUnit enumeration values.

Available values:

Name	Description
Document	Specifies documents (one three-hundredths of an inch) as measurement units.
Twip	Specifies twips (1,440 twips equal one inch, and 567 twips equal one centimeter) as measurement units.
Pixel	Specifies pixels as measurement units.

Remarks

To improve text rendering and the overall display appearance, set the LayoutUnit to DocumentLayoutUnit.Pixel. For a more accurate layout, specify DocumentLayoutUnit.Twip as the unit of measurement.

With the RichEditControlCompatibility.EnableLegacyLayoutEngine property set to false, the LayoutUnit property doesn’t affect the document model layout calculation. Set the RichEditControlCompatibility.EnableLegacyLayoutEngine property set to true to manage the document layout manually.
