Another question also exists: how do Octave and GraphicsMagick interchange 
graphics data? Is it by standard file formats (in memory or on disk) or is it 
via an API? In the first case the differences in pixel resolution should not 
play any role, because *standard* (external) data formats are used. (PNG is 
PNG, no matter if it's 1 bit or 64 bit deep. Each such object is identifying 
itself by a header, so writer and reader have the exact knowledge of the object 
and GraphicsMagick – and also Octave – can use internally whatever format it 
wishes or prefers to use for its own private working representation of the 
external graphics object.) If the data exchange works via APIs then both users 
of this API might have to stick to some agreed upon value – if there's no way 
to negotiate via the API this value.
