According to the CSS spec, px is an absolute unit, unrelated to the actual device pixel size. Most readers, actually ignore this and just use pixels.

You could use "cm" or "mm" too, and those are clearly absolute... but some devices (e.g. my Kobo) have a personal view on what a cm is.

And if using % for the margins/size, you should be aware that it may not change with font size, but it will change with screen orientation or device margins.
