Never. I used to be forced to when I worked at a newspaper. I always thought it was ridiculous to use.
- I had an art director that always force me to use them, too. I hated working with them.Josev

I use picas and points for calculating and configuring type spacing. But really, i have no use for them as an over all page measurement. I wish i could set up my programs up to use (and display) picas for type measurements and my page rulers to use inches at the same time.
