<?tptxtabs>
Description
By default any unit specified with Maths, within either <$><$> characters or <$$><$$> characters, is specified assuming a point size of 10pt. This means that if the paragraph text height is not set to 10pt, all the measurements within the Maths will need to be scaled accordingly. For example, if the text height for a paragraph is set to 12pt, all the specified Maths units will be scaled by 120%. Previously, to override this default behavior, units needed to be preceded by true, for example 25truemm.
Specifying <?tptxabs=1> indicates that all Maths units will be absolute. No scaling will be performed and units will not need to be prefixed with true.
If this command is specified for a block, it will apply as the default to any Maths within the block.
