  dpi really is irrelevant until you print and image, but flash gets tricky with it for some stupid reason. if you import 2 images to the stage, both 300px by 200px, but one is at 1dpi, the other at 1000dpi, they will indeed look different on the stage, but if you select them and type 300 and 200 into the property inspector, they will both look and export identically. a 300 x 200 image contains 60,000 pixels no matter what the dpi is.

  • print *an* imageacescence
  • Right, because flash does it's own compression on export.falcadia
  • compression doesnt have anything to do with the dpi setting... if we aren't printing, dpi is irrelevant.. its just metadataribit
