Did you see my example of 72 vs 300 ppi? It doesn't matter as the pixels per inch are assigned afterwards. The camera only captures pixels. The rest of the information is assigned by the user afterwards. If you want them to read 300, open them in Photoshop 7. But the image file has no pixels per inch until opening and saving at that resolution you assign.

Part of your problem might be that you're using the operating system viewer to view the images. Use ACDSee and it'll read the EXIF data and you'll see what you want to see.

About the Canon Raw Converter. Is it actually assigning ppi, or just changing the EXIF data to reflect what you're wanting to see. Isn't the captured image the same pixel dimensions no matter what you set the ppi for?

you're copying the image to the hard drive, it's not an
issue. Just open
them in Photoshop and resize.

This is exactly what i want to avoid doing. Why did it never happened to me
when i was working with Windows ME? Why can i not change the preferences so
that my images are saved at 300ppi? Are you saying that there is nothing
that i can do about it Larry?

In the Canon RAW converter software there is a preferences window which
allows one to select the resolution one would like to capture the image at.
Is it not logical therefore that the image be downloaded and saved at that
same resolution?

Forgive me if my questions are far from illuminating, but it is proving very
frustrating......
