I just came across a freebie screen ruler that seems to work perfectly with FM (including XP; don't know about Vista). Lots of customization capability (ruler height/width, scale, fonts, colors, units, vertical/horizontal display, multiple instances, "marks")

In order to display pica units, change the custom unit settings to:

Unit Size = 16
Ticks per Unit = 2
Display unit value every = 2

Doesn't seem to have any nagware or spyware, but please do your own due diligence about virus checks etc. before downloading.
