Re: [Help] Increase DPI ?

said by seanm6869:

My S3 IS only shoots in 180 DPI
That doesn't mean much, though . The S3 is 6 megapixels, so let's say let's say 3000x2000, at 180 DPI that's an image that is 16.67 inches by 11.11 inches. If you change the image to 300 DPI without resampling you are at 10 inches by 6.67 inches. It doesn't matter what DPI the camera shoots in, it only matters when you send it to the printer (be it your printer or Wal*Mart or whomever).

Some assembly required, your mileage may vary, no pixels were harmed in the writing of this post. Brain cells, though, are a different matter. You want fries with that?

So in photoshop, i go to image settings area and resize it to 300 DPI? And if so, will it hurt the quality of the image?

So long as you make sure that the resample box is not checked, it will not affect the image at all.

It might... the act of opening then resaving a jpg usually means new compression is applied.

Seriously, though... I wouldn't bother changing the DPI setting. The print GUIs in most imaging applications I've seen are advanced enough to make this unnecessary. Dumb programs like IE have problems but why print from them?
