5 Why do you need a matrix? Just measure and enter the actual
6 dimensions of your display.
7 Or if you want a specific DPI, do the math. For example, for
8 1280x1024 at 100dpi:
9
10 width = 1280pix / 100pix/in -> 12.8in * 25.4mm/in -> 325mm
11 height = 1024pix / 100pix/in -> 10.24in * 25.4mm/in -> 260mm
12
13 So the dimensions should be 325x260.
