Maybe it would be an idea to provide such a document, a one-page that captures 
and displays all relevant measurements. It could be opened upon a button push 
like the help files, from there the user may render it. Or the measurements 
page gets inserted into the current document from where it can easily be 
deleted again. Or make it a single, opaque inset for ultra-luxury.
