Hi

30x90 will be centimeters, which is the every-day unit for small-ish things
in the rest of the world.
Nothing strange here, just SI/metric at work.

Is oN_photo-XxY just some shorthand which has no meaning in terms of units?=
 30x90 is not in inches, nor in mm.<br>

They don&#39;t validate the registry beyond conformance to the XML schema, =
