What is DPI?

DPI (Dots Per Inch) is metadata that tells printers how large to print an image. Changing DPI does not change image quality or pixel count — it only affects the physical print size.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. DPI is just metadata that tells printers how large to print the image. The actual pixels remain unchanged.

300 DPI is standard for high-quality prints. 150 DPI is acceptable for drafts or large format prints viewed from a distance.

Screen displays use pixels, not inches, so DPI is largely irrelevant for web. 72 DPI is a legacy standard but has no effect on how the image appears on screen.
