Subject:dpi and pixels From:Sylvia Braunstein <sbraun -at- RUGGED -dot- COM> Date:Mon, 21 Jun 1999 18:26:58 +0200
I am confused. I was requested to scan a high resolution picture of
1000x1000 TIF format. I assumed it was pixels.
My boss said that 300 dpi (dot per inch) were enough otherwise the file
would be way too big.
Now, I am confused between the two of them.
Can anybody help me understand the difference and how you measure the
resolution.
