 The measure for column width in PhpSpreadsheet does **not** correspond
 exactly to the measure you may be used to in Microsoft Office Excel.
 Column widths are difficult to deal with in Excel, and there are several
-measures for the column width.1) **Inner width in character units**
-(e.g. 8.43 this is probably what you are familiar with in Excel)2)
-**Full width in pixels** (e.g. 64 pixels)3) **Full width in character
-units** (e.g. 9.140625, value -1 indicates unset width)**PHPExcel always
-operates with 3) "Full width in character units"** which is in fact the
+measures for the column width.
