There is another point one might take into account: 300dpi is perfect for Photo Prints or high quality printed documents. So I'd like to leave the default value with this.
However: I do documents regularly which include photos - but as they are intended to web-use primarily - I use resolutions of 150 ... 200dpi for those embedded photos. Problem with this: Of course I can calculate the size from the dpi and get a pixel <=> cm correlation. But: The DTP or simply office software reads the embedded dpi and doesn't know my intended dpi so I have to resize every single image to 150 or 200% manually. For this I would prefer to have a input-box in the export dialog to enter a specific dpi value for those specific export presets I use for those tasks. -- regards Bernhard http://blog.bilddateien.de Michael Below schrieb am 12.04.2015 um 14:25: > Hi, > > Am Sonntag, den 12.04.2015, 13:52 +0200 schrieb Tobias Ellinghaus: >> Am Freitag, 3.
