Here's a really geeky correction to David's otherwise excellent post:

4096th notes are 1 EDU -- not one EVPU -- in length. EDUs (Enigma Duration
Units) are used in entering composite time signatures and in
creating/editing music spacing tables. A quarter note is 1024 EDUs, so a
4096th note would be 1 EDU.

EVPUs (Enigma Virtual Page Units) are used in placing things precisely on a
page relative to a staff or system. One EVPU is equal to 1/288th of an inch.
