The accuracy of a height measurement with the profiler depends on the measurement settings, the sample, the instrument calibration and the resolution.

====Influence of measurement settings and sample====
====Use the right measurement settings for your sample====
Both the force setting and the scan speed are important: Too high force may compress a soft material like Al, Au or some polymers, while too low force may lead to the stylus "jumping" over features, especially if the scan speed is high.
