------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sun Mar 16 19:52:43 +0000 2008 ------- > A.) IF you don't print the document, why do you need PPI (or LPI or DPI)? Again DPI/PPI is used to scale between pixel-space and physical unit space. Correct DPI is what will make your bitmap file to have the right size when inserted in another Office document. Also it's customary to have strict DPI value rules when creating a set of materials. These rules can be print-oriented, web oriented or something else entirely and letting the user choose the exact DPI he needs is a requirement of any serious bitmap-producing graphic application. > While dpi is sometimes misused for monitors, you can't set a monitor "DPI" for > your image, because for every monitor and monitor resolution, this is a > different value. You're lacking imagination, labs of screens with the same characteristics are not that uncommon. Also it's not unheard-of to prepare material for the system currently been used. In this case the exact dpi value is well known. > C.) Just a short comment on color-depth: this much neglected feature is more > important than resolution itself. Feel free to open a separate issue. In crappy hardware corp-land, your colours will suck whatever color-depth is chosen. The Gimp will be fixed way before this situation changes, since calibrating screens/printers is on no one's radar yet (and in fact the hardware is getting worse in this respect). --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
