    I'm having the exact same issue as well since updating to CC2018. I tried two things first that should have worked: (1) changing the units under preferences and (2) right clicking on the ruler and changing it to inches. No luck. Here is what worked, oddly: Start a new document (File>New), in the window that pops up, set the units to inches. Then click create. For some reason that works, it keeps those settings even after closing and reopening.
