That's what I take as the TV definition of dot pitch. With computer makers, it tends to be the spacing between phosphors regardless of color. I do note that the figures I have been playing with need to be modified a bit, including the "there should be more than one dot for each pixel" which radically changes things.

Arch, et al., Page 359: "CRT resolution is specified in terms of dot pitch, which is the distance on the screen from the center of one phosphor color dot (or line) to the next adjacent dot of the same color. Since the CRT dots are a form of sampling, there should be more than one dot for each pixel, to avoid loss of resolution." ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Golitsis" <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > Please tell me what "pitch" means.
