If it's any consolation, those other languages don't help with meaning either. You have to do this kind of thing:

function decypherUnits (theNum)
{
 if (theNum<257)
 {
  // Custom settings are in points.
  return "pts";
 }
 // Decyphers for print purposes, so inches and inches decimal are both returned as 'ins'
 theNums = [2054187363,2054188905,2053729891,2053729892,2053991795,2053336435,2053335395]
 theMeanings = ["picas","pts","ins","ins","mms","cms","ciceros"]
 for (var i = 0; i<theNums.length; i++)
 {
  if (theNum == theNums[i])
  {
   return theMeanings[i];
  }
 }
 return theNum
}
