In Microsoft Word XP, does the font size refer to the
point size or pitch size?

Point size. But it can effect the other.

Strictly speaking, in the print-world, 'pitch' refers to the number of
characters per inch. They could have called it 'pinch'.

Word uses it to determine the amount of space between characters...
