dpi changes
Why is the DPI changing in some of my photos? They change from 300dpi to 626 after I do some editing. I need them to stay in 300 dpi without losing quality. Thanks for any help.

Re: dpi changes
DPI can always be changed without losing quality. It's just a value for physical printing. Do you do any resizing where you change the physical print size? Or any cropping where you define a print size? Those are the most common culprits in changing DPI to match the new print size.
Essentially any time you tell PSP that you want the image to print on a smaller size without deleting pixels, or without deleting enough pixels. it'll change the DPI so that the math works out.
