In computers, dots per inch (dpi) is a measure of the sharpness (that is, the density of illuminated points) on a display screen. The dot pitch determines the absolute limit of the possible dots per inch. However, the displayed resolution of pixels (picture elements) that is set up for the display is usually not as fine as the dot pitch.

DPI stands for dots per inch, or the number of dots of ink that fill a linear inch of surface. DPI is used to measure printing resolution -- the higher the dots per inch, the better the resolution and the better the image quality. For example, if an image has a resolution of 300dpi, it means that a square inch of solid color will be filled with about 90,000 (300X300) dots of ink. (Return to Top) See similar questions...

let the XFree86 X server calculate the DPI value based on the DisplaySize parameter in its configuration file, XF86Config-4. See the XF86Config-4(5x) manual page for details. The first method is recommended if you already know the DPI value of your monitor and wish to always run it at the same resolution; the second method is the more flexible way, but only available for the XFree86 X server. In each of the files above, remove the -dpi word and the following number. See similar questions...

By default, we scan pictures at 72 dpi since this setting seems to produce images of high quality without making the size of the files overly large. Please not that if you order your photos to be outputed to CD-ROM then 200 dpi scans are going to be included free of charge. If you want to scan your pictures at a higher dpi setting, please contact us and we will try to accomadate you. See similar questions...

When a computer displays a digital image, what it does is take the data in the file and display thousands of tiny dots on your screen. The more dots an image has, the more detailed the picture can be. Image quality is measured by dots per inch, or "dpi". We will display a low image quality image if your digital picture will be less than 100 dpi on the Photo Gift. For best results, we recommend that your digital pictures be at least 300 dpi when printed on the Photo Gift. See similar questions...

Burke's Outlet clearance merchandise is marked with colored dots that indicate the % off the ticketed price. Merchandise is dotted at 30%, 50%, 70% and 95% off our original price.

That is the new Restricted Modification Symbol. It means that no card may modify Throttled. Not your Power Of Darkness nor Get Crowd Support, etc., nor your opponent's Brahma Bull or Running Lariat, etc. Also, the key word is "modify": you can still reverse Throttled as stated on the card or using cards like Backlash!, Defensive Posture, etc. No. It means you have to overturn 2 reversals that you would have been able to use to reverse the maneuver.

No, the “dot” or colony size on a dipslide is independent of the number of microorganisms. If lower numbers of microorganisms are present, the colonies may grow in size on the dipslide but this does not always occur. See similar questions...

Unfortunately not. The average man who undertakes penis enlargement will see results of around 2-4 inches in length and 1-2 inches in girth. Of course there are very dedicated men who may be able to improve on these results but you need to be realistic in your goals. See similar questions...

A pixel is a minute circular point of light about 10 or 12 thousandths of an inch in diameter (sometimes stated as 10 or 12 'mils') created on a monitor screen. A dot is a sample taken by a scanner for representation in a raster image. A 300 dots per inch (dpi) scan takes snapshots of dots which are about 3 mils across (3,33333....mils to be exact).

DPI stands for dots per inch. The more dots there are in a square inch - the higher the resolution of a photo, meaning better photo quality. But when you have more dots, you also have a larger file requiring a longer download time. So, you want to use a lower resolution for your web graphics. Web graphics require a lower resolution than print because of limitations presented by computer monitors. I generally use 72 dpi for web and at least 225-300 dpi for print. See similar questions...
