image dpi

Post by edadks »

Most of the images I work with need to be saved at screen resolution (in my case that's 72 or 96 dpi).

In past versions, I'd load an image, usually 300 dpi, and when I resize the image (Image -> Resize), the default resolution was always 72 dpi. All I needed to do was set the new pixel dimensions that I wanted, and I was done.

In X5, the resize box is showing the actual current dpi of the picture I'm trying to resize.

Is there a way to set X5 so that the Resize function always defaults to a specific resolution (i.e. 96 dpi)?

thanks,

Ed

Why do you need to set the dpi(ppi) so low? If it's for screen viewing you don't have to worry about the dpi. The dpi is only for printing on an actual physical object so you know how many pixels you're printing within a physical space. On computer monitors this makes no difference at all.

Unfortunately, there is not settings to set the default DPI on PSP X5, since it will always get the DPI of the image that you want to resize.
