Hi Dave,
Resolution depends on the ratio between the actual size and the
current size of the image.
If the current size is the actual size, the resolution is 72 DPI with
most monitors.
At half size 144 DPI, etc.
With Rev objects all this does not make sense since I think Rev
recalculates
Hi,
I just need to display the current resolution with in the image (e.g
the TIFF property), I am not going to change the DPI or use it to
scale an image, it's just that we have the same images but with
different resolutions and displaying the DPI of the underlying file
is the best way to tell
Also there is a place were people can download your program and try it out
first? Can you past that link here as well as how long does it work in trial
