Display Properties:
 lcd monitor:    Dell UltraSharp 1907FP (analog input)

  resolution:    96x96 dots per inch

Here are my Conky properties...

Code:
####
## Minimum size of the text area.
## Syntax: minimum_size [width] [height]
#
minimum_size 245 1394

####
## Maximum width of the text area.
## Syntax: maximum_width [width]
#
maximum_width 245

####
## Gap between text and screen borders.
#
gap_x 6	  # Left/Right
gap_y 32  # Top/Bottom
Soooo, while the text area is 245 pixels wide, the whole Conky display is 251 pixels wide, with the 6 pixel gap.
