Hi all,
   Fernand and Thorsten. Yes, as you said, there are some professional fields 
that need the high-resolution image to do something like photo-album and 
magazine etc. I agree that it must and should reserve the original resolution.
   But I think that there are some other fields which should not hold it. Such 
as our customer who use Oo in the MID(Mobile Internet Device) which has only 1G 
CPU, 512MB DDR2 memory and 7" LCD with 800*600 resolution. The MID has low 
processing speed and low resolution. What the customer want to do is just using 
the Oo to show the  Writer, the Impress etc. in the MID. They don't use Oo to 
do something like you. 
   In this situation, why they should reserve  the original resolution? Just 
keep not lower than 800*600 is ok for them. 
   Even in your fields, because the image has so much various content, 
discarding some lines and columns is not a serious thing I think. Of course, 
keeping the origine is better.
   
   Maybe we can give the different customers some abundant options to dicide 
whether scaling image, which level they want to downscale the high-res image.

Lets take an A4: 11.7 x 8.3 in
Lets take a colour image printed on a home-printer => it will have at 
most 100 LPI (actually more like 80-90).
11.7*100 = 1170
8.3  *100 =   830
So, a 1170 x 830 pixel colour image will print optimally on any 
home-printer.
Lets take now a professional image-setter with 150 LPI:
11.7*150 = 1755
8.3  *150 = 1245
Any resolution higher than this is NOT useful, as the printer driver or 
printer processor will firstly scale down the image and then print it. 
In order to construct the various colours, the printer combines lots of 
dots, i.e. a 600 DPI will combine at least 6*6=36 dots to create 37 
levels of gray (it is similar - though more complex - for colour 
prints). Thus, a 600 DPI printer will actually operate as a 100 LPI 
device (and usually lower than this, as a 85-90 LPI device). LPI is 
relevant, NOT pixels, but device manufacturers do NOT report the (TRUE) 
LPIs.
Sincerely,
Leonard
