The dimensions of the screen determine the DPI used to draw the screen:
$ xdpyinfo | egrep 'resol|dimen'
dimensions: 1280x1024 pixels (339x271 millimeters)
resolution: 96x96 dots per inch
The physical dimensions are 339x271mm; the logical dimensions are
1280x1024 pixels, which gives an actual screen resolution of 96x96dpi,
