One way to find the DPI resolution specified in the header of an image is to load it in the GIMP and do Image > Scale. The existing DPI value is shown in the dialog box. To change the DPI, just enter your new DPI value and "Scale" the image. All this will do - unless you entered new dimensions as well - is change the DPI specified in the file header. If you change your image size from pixels to inches or another physical dimension in the Scale dialog, the DPI is used by the GIMP to calculate the new dimensions in pixels when actually resizing the image. This is very convenient when, for instance, exporting images for print at 300 DPI. :o) _______________________________________________ gimp-user-list mailing list List address: [email protected] List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list
