Peter,
Long ago all Macs used 72 DPI for screen resolution. Today it is more
like 90 DPI but can be more or less. Flat panels may be over 120 DPI.
And resolutions are bound to go higher as everyone tries to accommodate
pictures and movies.
More madness: most 17" screens and most 19" screens have the same
resolution - so the DPI varies significantly depending on the screen
where it is viewed.
I would just design the at print resolution, 72 DPI (3" x 5" = 216 x
360).

Subject: Screen DPI
What is the screen DPI. I know on Mac, it is usually 72. I'm wanting
to create a pseudo-WYSIWYG card editor that lets you specify a size,
like 3 x 5, and it displays an appropriately sized card for one to
place text on. 72 on Windows seems a bit small. I was just wondering if
anyone had a rule of thumb they used.
Thanks!
