Exterior Door Measurements

Hello Knowledgeable People
I've seen an exterior door for sale that I quite like and i have the frame measurements.
How do I go about checking the measurements of my own door frame? Do I measure the outside or the inside co I think they are different? Is there any leeway I have to take into account for expansion?
Ta very much
