We've been trying to do the calculation in the wrong order! We don't
need the slide size after all. Here's the approach:
0. The point coordinates are in physical units, relative to the center
of the entire slide
1. Add the [XY]OffsetFromSlideCentre ==> physical units, relative to the
center of the main image
2. Divide by (mpp-[xy] * 1000) ==> pixel coordinates, relative to the
center of the main image
3. Subtract (level-0 dimensions / 2) ==> level 0 pixel coordinates
