DPI

=DPI and PPI=

- An image that is 800x600 pixels printed in PPI will have a setting of 100 PPI and the print will be 8x6 inches - Most common PPI setting is 240 and is "high quality" - 320 is the highest PPI setting you really need - Anything below 180 PPI you can notice a quality drop - does not control print quality, but does control font size
 * - PPI stands for " Pixels per inch" used for printing not video display**

-** it measures how finely spaced droplets of in can be printed - changing the DPI will NOT change the size of the font - however it does control print quality
 * - DPI is "Dots per inch" and is a property OF A PRINTER not a digital image

- Both PPI and DPI mean nothing when displaying a digital image on your monitor, the only thing that determines the sixe is pixel count adn aspect ratio. - To control how large an image appears on a monitor when veiwing images on the web is to change the pixel count
