The underlying problem is that Excel measures Row Height in picas and Column
Width in number of standard characters.

There are 72 picas (vertical) to the inch, and 12 characters (horizontal) to
the inch. So for a square cell, the ratio of the NUMBERS for Row
Height/Column Width must be 1:6. As JEV wrote, for a 1 inch square cel,l set
RH = 72, CW =12.
For a 1/2 " square cell, set RH=36, CW=6.
