Where does the default width and height of the cells come from =) ?

[Sirritys]

Just wondering why the default width of the cell is 8,43 and width
12,75?

and how come height is larger value even it's smaller =) ?

Row heights are measured in points or pixels. There are 72 points to an inch
and "maybe" 96 pixels to the inch.

The number that appears in the Standard column width box is the average number
of digits 0-9 of the standard font that fit in a cell.
