VH to PT Converter
Use this free online vh to pt converter tool to convert viewport height units to points for print design. Points are a traditional print unit where 1pt equals 1/72nd of an inch. This converter bridges responsive viewport units and print measurements.
To convert vh to points, multiply the vh value by viewport height and divide by 100 to get pixels, then multiply by 72 and divide by 96. The default viewport height is 1080px. This conversion is valuable when adapting responsive designs to print.
Conversion Formula
pt = (vh × viewport height ÷ 100 × 72) ÷ 96
For example, to convert 10vh to points on a 1080px viewport, calculate (10 × 1080 ÷ 100 × 72) ÷ 96 = 81pt. This translates responsive vertical sizing to print dimensions.

What is VH?
Viewport Height (vh) is a relative CSS unit where 1vh equals 1% of the browser viewport's height. Like VW, it responds dynamically to viewport changes, making it perfect for full-height sections and responsive vertical spacing. VH units are commonly used for hero sections, modals, and mobile-first designs that need to adapt to various screen heights.
What is PT?
Points (pt) are an absolute CSS unit traditionally used in print design, where 1pt equals 1/72nd of an inch. In web contexts, points are often converted at a 3:4 ratio with pixels (3pt = 4px). While less common in modern web design, points remain relevant for print stylesheets and PDF generation.
