- Paris_inch abstract "The Paris inch, or pouce, is an archaic unit of length, that among other uses, was common for giving the measurement of lenses. The Paris inch could be subdivided into 12 ligne (Paris line), and 12 Paris inches made a Paris foot. The Paris foot, Paris inch and Paris line could be abbreviated with the prime symbol ( ′ ), double prime symbol ( ″ ), and triple prime symbol ( ‴ ) respectively, like some other inch and foot units. The Paris inch is longer than the English inch and the Vienna inch, although the Vienna inch was subdivided with a decimal, not 12 lines.A famous measurement made using the Paris inch is the lens measurement of the first great refractor telescope, the Dorpat Great Refractor, also known as the Fraunhofer 9-inch. The 9-Paris inch diameter lens was made by Joseph von Fraunhofer, which works out to about 24 centimetres (9.4 in) (English inches) aperture achromatic lens (the largest of its day).".
