Unit Definition (palmo [Texas])
The palmo is a traditional unit of distance in Spain and Portugal. The traditional Spanish palmo equals 9 pulgadas or 1/4 vara. In Texas, 1/4 vara comes to 8 1/3 inches (21.17 centimeters). These units are based on the width of a person's outstretched hand, from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the little finger, a definition identical to that of the English span.

Unit Definition (kyu)
The kyu is a metric unit of distance used in typography and graphic design. The kyu, originally written Q, is equal to exactly 0.25 millimeter, about 0.71 point, or about 14.173 twips.
