Yah, this is most likely 1/4", although kind of missleading because it
also says:

"1/8" high characters include 26 letters "A-Z", "&" sign, and numbers
"0-8" (turn the "6" upside down for the number "9") "

Probably a typo, but could be that the tool is 1/4" round and the
letters/numbers are only 1/8". They have some others too though, so
I'm sure one of the others is probably more clear.

I don't really like buying tools on-line.
