How do I set the DPI (dots-per-inch) value used by the X server?

XStrikeForce/FAQ - Debian Wiki
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.

What dpi (dots per inch) value do you use to scan the pictures?

Frequently Asked 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.

What does DPI (dots per inch) mean?

Digital FAQ - Precision Camera & Video - Austin, Texas
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.

What does dots per inch (DPI) mean?

Frequently Asked Questions @ EiPrinting (www.checksforless.c...
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)

How do I import data and conduct analyses of survey data in ...
To indicate an FPC (finite population correction) value to be used for the entire data set, click on "Options" under the table request node of the workbook tree. You can change the default FPC value of one to whatever is required for your data set. You need to calculate the FPC value yourself outside of WesVar. To do this use the formula: 1 - (n/N), where n = the sample size and N = the population size. Remember that you need to use an FPC only if your sampling fraction is large.

UNDER WHAT CONDITIONS SHOULD 18 GAUGE 36 INCH ADAPTER CABLE BE USED?

Alpha4 FAQ
If the adapter cable is used for charging and cycling batteries from 2 to 12 cells the length and gauge of cable is not critical. Only 18 gauge or heavier and 36 inches or shorter cable should be used with "V" device. This is necessary because the second four digit reading of the "V" device is taken under heavy 1000mA load and thin long cables will have a large voltage drop. This will result in voltage at the battery being higher than at the Alpha4 port jack. This will cause flashing V.
