Re: [Gimp-user] Disk Based TIFF Image Viewer and Printer
Kevin Myers wrote: So, any other ideas out there? As usual, I'm desperate! All suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for any help. To be quite honest I don't think you'll be able to pull this one off. I suggest buying some cardboard mailing tubes and printing all the images and sending out the prints. Sometimes analog is still better than digital. If you're absolutely positively dead set on sending out a disk, I think Macromedia makes something that can drive a slide show from a CD. No telling if it can handle your giant images however. I would rely on paper. If someone sent me a CD that crashed my computer I would not hire them for anything. (and it has happened to me and I did NOT hire the guys) If you really want to impress go to a print shop that has one of those large format ink-jet printers and print out gigantic banners.

Re: [Gimp-user] what is dpi, ppi and lpi
On Fri, 12 Apr 2002, Amit Mukherjee wrote: Hi, Can anyone tell me the difference between dpi, ppi and lpi ? If my intention is to print a picture measuring 8x10, at what resolution should I scan ? dpi = dots per inch ppi = pixels per inch lpi = lines per inch to know the minimum you need to scan you'll need to know what sort of dpi your printer is capable of printing. Lets say its an ink-jet that'll handle 1000dpi To print an 8x10 without having to scale the image up or down to make it fit you'll need to scan... 8000 x 10,000 pixels! Pretty easy eh? Depending on the software you're printing with you might be able to get a decent print from less. If you're going to be retouching the scan you might want to scan at double or triple the resolution of your printer so you can make really fine corrections and then scale the image down to the maximum size your printer can handle right before you print.
