From the EDID. It's a data set that is communicated between computer and
monitor over DVI or VGA. It contains, in addition to the frequency and
sync requirements and the display resolution also the physical size of
the display.

(It is wrong. I have measured the correct value. The correct value is
331x207mm².)

Which is very close, you should be fine with it.

So long,
