The Pango.GlyphUnit type is used to store dimensions within
Pango.
Dimensions are stored in 1/PANGO_SCALE of a device unit.
(A device unit might be a pixel for screen display, or
a point on a printer.) PANGO_SCALE is currently 1024, and
may change in the future (unlikely though), but you should not
depend on its exact value.
The PANGO_PIXELS() macro can be used to convert from glyph units
into device units with correct rounding.
