now I'm at work the best documentation I have is from ITU T.871 which
is ISO/IEC 10918-5:

Units for the H (horizontal) and V (vertical) densities:
= X'00': units unspecified; H and V densities, expressed in dots per
arbitrary unit, specify only the pixel aspect ratio (width:height
pixel aspect ratio = Vdensity:Hdensity).

which is more explicit than the JFIF 1.02 de facto standard, which was
what I read last night. JFIF 1.02 I thought could be read in an
ambiguous manner.

This is much better, but reinforces something I mentioned to some
people yesterday; specifications should come with some form of
examples/reference implementation, especially when tying together
multiple standards or when there are variations supported due to
combining multiple proposals.
