      ********
    • the only way to tell what the DPI setting is, is to look at the file header (cos it's just metadata)ribit

    • screen have a 72dpi resolution.. even if you pimp it out to 500 dpi, it won't change cause it's made for 72elektro
    • ugh, still not getting it. DPI has nothing to with screen PPI. set DPI to whatever you wantacescence
    • no need to bring DPI or PPI into it. Both just aren't relevant here.ribit
    • Why do people keep saying screens have 72dpi resolution? Have you just arrived from the 80s?ribit
    • yeah, layover from when average CRT pixel densities were around 72. Kopin makes LCD panels up to 2700 PPI nowacescence
