Re: [Gimp-user] Help with Cropping



This is splitting hairs.
DPI is the term used by professional graphic designers when speccing for print reproduction, even though the "dots" in DPI may be made up of clusters of pixels. It harkens back to linescreens.

My day to day work for prints for homes is 200 dpi.
Maybe you should rethink.  dpi is a printer term, not a quality term for
an image.  dpi represents the number of ink dots a printer places on
paper.  pixels per inch would be a measure of quality of an image.
