Many (most?) journals have published guidelines for submitting digital
artwork. They typically request 300 or better dpi at a physical size of 7
inches (for two-columns) or 3.25 inches (single-column).

My point on journals is that generally they don't take any notice of what
size the author wants a picture anyway. I can send a picture I want to be
half-page & they will squeeze it into postage stamp size or whatever. (I
admit to over-generalising here ...)
