I already tought that the picture needed to be stretched so that's fine,
since I was planning to do a collage of known MSX images. At least known for
european( more like benelux, don't know about spain) users. I don't care much
for the pixelation when stretching, the pixelation is part of the charme that
MSX has for me.
Now, that I know the DPI of the machine, how much printable surface can I use
? Doing a colage of pixel images I would like to know DPI multiuplied by
number of inches= number of pixels that can be used. Ofcourse , using 300
DPI would make a screen shot of an MSX game less then an inche, so I probably
will need to scale the screenshots already :-)
