Well, isn't that a happy little question! To convert pounds per linear foot to pounds per square foot, you need to know the width of the material in feet. Once you have the width, simply multiply the pounds per linear foot by the width in feet to get the pounds per square foot. Just remember, there are no mistakes, only happy little accidents in math and painting alike!

You cannot.

A linear foot is a measure of length or distance in 1-dimensional space while a square foot is a measure of area in 2-dimensional space. The two measure different things so the above measures, which are derived from them also measure different things. According to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.
