Any value that FrameMaker displays in the "custom dpi" box is read from 
the header of the graphic file itself. If I take a capture with SnagIt and 
leave the "resolution" setting at 96 (the default) when saving the capture 
as a BMP file, the custom dpi value I see in FrameMaker is 96. If I set the 
"resolution" to 120 before saving the capture, the custom dpi value I 
see in FrameMaker is 120. In both cases the pixel dimensions of the 
capture are the same and the actual resolution is still the same nominal
96 dpi; the "resolution" in the file header is nothing more than a 
"suggested" value for anything using the image downstream, and 
FrameMaker displays that suggestion as the custom dpi value.
