DPI is a function of print size and image pixel dimensions. Pymol or any other program
that displays graphics does not have a "dpi". The 72 dpi you are referring to
is a typical (for some systems) display resolution in pixels per inch.
If your journal figure is going to be 3 x 3 inches, for example, you will need
to provide an image of 1800 x 1800 pixels to achieve the required 600 dpi.

Subject: [PyMOL] Saving figures for publication
To: "pymol-users@lists.sourceforge.net" <pymol-users@lists.sourceforge.net>
Hi,
I need to make figures in tiff format with at least 600 dpi resolution
as required by the journal. The default resolution in Pymol figures is
72. Is there a simple way to increase the resolution (and save it in
tiff format)?
Alternatively, I can 'convert' from png to tiff afterwards
