In other words, for gear, it is insufficient info?

But for rack and pinion, one is no longer dealing with gear ratio
anymore, isn't it? We would have to have matching teeth on the rack?
And on revolution of the "pinion" would equal to 1 circumference of
the pinion? There would be no amplification or reduction? gear ratio
= 1?

could be short or long addendum or some kind of special. There is
quit a few variable's when doing gear design . When you get down to
12 teeth they will almost always fatten up the tooth for more
strength and to eliminate the under cutting in the root area.
