If you use the SVN version, you can set what units are being displayed  
in the various input boxes. The ruler units cannot be changed yet,  
they are in cm.

If you export as PNG (Libart), you can set the dimensions of the  
resulting image. Assuming, that is, that you have a version compiled  
with Libart.
