![]() ![]() Doing so lets you know exactly what level of quality to expect from printing at a certain size. This column is about empowering you to calculate resolution manually using the image’s pixel dimensions and the size of the print you want to make. Now, this column isn’t about whether you should or shouldn’t change resolution or even how to do it in those apps. If you don’t know what you’re doing, increasing resolution can trash an image because the app will add (interpolate) fake pixels that weren’t really captured. Other apps, such as Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, and Pixelmator also alert you to resolution deficiency in their print dialog boxes but they also let you fiddle with the resolution setting in their Image Size dialog boxes. Why? Because those apps calculate the resolution for you whenever you ask them to print an image at a certain size if you don’t have enough resolution, the app tells you so. Adobe Photoshop Lightroom doesn’t flaunt the setting either you only encounter it when exporting images. To keep things simple, Apple Photos won’t let you see image resolution, much less change it. However, if you forked out big bucks for an inkjet printer that can spray ink at higher resolutions-say, 1440 dpi or 2880 dpi-you can sometimes get a better result by aiming for a higher resolution in your calculation. Generally speaking, you need a resolution of at least 240 ppi to produce a nice print on most inkjet printers and online printing services. The lower the resolution, the bigger the pixels, which makes for blocky prints resembling a pile of Legos. Small pixels make for smooth, high-quality prints.

Yeah 24" at 1080p is a nice match, 22.5" is a bit low but still OK. as in you could have Microsoft Word open on a blank A4 or Letter sheet at 100% zoom, and put an actual sheet of paper on the screen and they'll be the same size.ġ20 dpi or 144 dpi would be good values, because you can enable text scaling at 1.25x or 1.5x and it will look right. Windows native DPI is 96 dpi - that is the closest the monitor is to this value, the more you can correlate with real life objects. You can use to calculate ppi and pixel size. ![]() If native 720p looks bad (117ppi) then will 1080p(91ppi) look worse? I use upscaling on my monitor (gpu scaling) to 1440p so it does't look bad. I am wondering if the 24 inch monitor would still look better. ![]() Using the pathegorean theorem and a calculator you can see that a 1360x768 monitor at 13in (what I have now) has a ppi of around 117. ![]()
