How do you convert pixels into centimeters?

Answer

In truth, you don't convert pixels to cm. There is a little more information that is needed and without knowing exactly what it is that you want to do, it is difficult to address this completely.

A pixel is one of the colored dots on your computer screen that makes up both images and text (as well as all of the blank areas in between them). Most computer screens display either 72 or 96 pixels per inch. Most printing is based on 240 or 300 pixels per inch.

If you are asking about printing: If you want to make a 4 x 6 inch print on a 300 DPI (Dot Per Inch) printer you need your file to contain 1200 x 1800 pixels. An 8 x10 will have to be 2400 x 3000 pixels. In reality, most comsumer printing systems will handle this conversion for you. You just tell the software what size print you want to make the software will "resize" your image to the correct dimensions.

I will leave the inch to cm conversion to you!
