MM to REM Converter- Instantly Change Millimeters to REM.

Print and web Designing involves customarily having to deal with many different measurement scales; millimeters (mm) to print and REM to digital layout. The MM to REM Converter of ToolsMate eases the process and corrects it and designers, developers and UI experts can reduced physical size to scalable web-friendly size created in seconds.

It makes no difference whether you are designing a responsive site, print-to-web conversion, or whether you are maintaining the ratios straight across devices, this tool is correct and painless in conversions.

What Is an MM to REM Converter?

The MM to REM Converter is a free online calculator that can change the numbers of the millimeters (mm) which is one of the standard physical measurements to the value of REM (root em) as the relative root font of a webpage.

  • Millimeters (mm): This is the universal measurement of print design and it is employed to refer to exact, physical measurements.
  • REM (root em): Scaled CSS unit which is applied to web design and which is calculated with the font size of the root element (usually 16px by default).

It is possible to bring the gap between the physical in the real-world and the responsive web unit together and your designs will appear the same both in print and on-screen designs by converting mm to the REM.

Formula Explained How the Conversion Works.

To change millimeters to REM, one has to first change mm to pixels, and then by the root font size. The formula is:

Value in REM = (MM Value / 25.4 ​× 96 ) ÷ Root Font Size

Here’s what each part means:

  • 25.4 – length of one inch in millimeters.
  • 96 – pixels per inch (default screen DPI)
  • Root Font Size – This is the font size of the root of the HTML element, and is usually 16 pix.

Example Calculation

Figure 1 below is an illustration where you want to measure 10mm in terms of REM at 16px root font.

Value in REM = ( 10 / 25.4 × 96 ) / 16 
Value in REM=2.36 REM

As such, 10mm corresponds to 2.36REM with 16 pixels per root font.

Here, in this very easy illustration, is how simply the physical dimensions may be scaled to scalable web units – and such can be scaled by our converter at the touch of a button.

The MM to the REM Converter is operated.

You need not be a mathematical genius in order to come up with the right answers. Follow these simple steps:

Step 1: Enter the MM Value

Type the maximum limit of (measuring) value that you want to be converted to millimeters (mm). This can be the height, width or margin of your layout.

Step 2: Set the Root Font Size

Specify font size using CSS. The default of most browsers is 16px but you can modify this in accordance to the settings of your project.

Step 3: Click “Convert”

All you have to do is once you have entered the necessary values in our tool, the matching value of the REM value shall be calculated and displayed to you to be copied and pasted to your style sheet.

Step 4: Apply to Your Design

Put your changed REM value in your CSS of font-size, space, border, or any other layout property. This offers responsive and stable scaling of design to every device.

Significant Benefits of collaborating with REM Units.

  • Scalability: REM units are dynamically scaled to root font configuration of the user, and this is opening up your layout to you.
  • Responsiveness: Guarantees the scaling of the screen sizes and resolutions.
  • Accessibility: The site is friendly to visual impaired users because it respects the zoom option in the browser.
  • Easiness of modification: One can easily create changes in the design globally – by just modifying one value in the root, the entire layout will change automatically.

Common Use Cases

  • Web Developers: Scaling print to scalable CSS.
  • UI/UX Designers: Unifying the sizes of the components on devices.
  • Print-to-Web Projects: Customizing millimeter based mockups to the web responsive versions.
  • Design System Builders: This offers typographic uniformity, scale of padding and scale of margins.

Frequently Asked Question (FAQs)

1. What is a REM in CSS?

REM stands for “Root EM.” It is a relative scale of measurement that is scaled by font diameter of the root element. Using the font size of 16px, 1rem = 16px.

2. Why convert MM to REM?

Analogue to digital Scaling of physical and print-based scale to web-relative unit Conversion of mm to Reynolds elasticity of scale assists in ensuring that the analogue scale scaling process is correct on the digital platform, and the design is consistent across all digital platforms.

3. Reading What is the default browsing font size?

Most browsers have the default font set as 16px. However, developers may perform the custom scaling of this value with the help of the CSS html selector.

4. Is this tool applicable to other CSS units like EM or PX?

This is MM to REM centered however other converters are also available in ToolsMate such as MM to PX, CM to REM, PX to EM etc. to perform flexible design calculations.

5. And is it compatible with any resolution?

Yes. The formula assumes the average DPI of the screen (96). Though, the real device resolutions might vary the resolutions using this standard are uniform and web compatible.

Conclusion

ToolsMate MM to REM Converter is a tool that is necessary to every designer or developer who works in both print and the digital platform. It eliminates the use of hand calculations and can be utilized to save a considerable amount of time, in addition to its pixel perfect accuracy.

It only takes two clicks to translate any millimeter value into scalable responsive REM units – your designs will be consistent, and they will be professional and capable of changing with minimum effort.
