Tilman Hausherr commented on PDFBOX-2078:
-----------------------------------------

The dpi isn't part of the BufferedImage, it is calculated into a zoom factor 
for rendering. So you have to pass it as a parameter again when saving, it is 
meta data, and its use is not properly supported by ImageIO (look at the source 
code of ImageIOUtils :-)  )

> DPI always 96

> I'm trying to convert a 1 page pdf report to an image using convertToImage.
> My used command goes as follows:
>  BufferedImage bi=page.convertToImage(BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB, 300);
> No matter how much i change the resolution (300 in the example), the DPI 
> stays the same, even though the quality and the dimensions of the picture 
> change.
> Adding a comparison between a 96 resolution picture and what should be a 300 
> resolution picture (notice the DPI)
