    Don't get so hung up on 12px and 12pt. Use Illustrator, set the page size to something realistic, and design 1:1. If it looks good, then send it out. Let the developer fuck with the type size to match your layout.

    Also, when you switch a Photoshop image from inches to centimeters it doesn't change the image, just like pixels to points, it just changes the measurement only. You can set Illustrator to measure type in pixels and be done.
