Arguing endlessly that we should somehow follow JoeBob's EZ Publishing Blog or ten thousand amateur users who don't grasp the 'no soft returns' thing or printers who have been doing this since the lead type days is. Or that if you choose to throw your lot in with the equivalent of flat-earthers, and defend their sloppy and incorrect usage based on a form of 'voting on the facts,' no one is going to try and change your mind?īut here in what may be the most concentrated body of experts in the field (both software and practices), it's overwhelmingly preferred to use the terms precisely. Have you read closely enough here to grasp that no one is disputing you on this assessment of 'actual reality' - the millions who hack at imaging and publication, usually while complaining that Adobe's pricing is piratical? and both of them refer to 'pixels per inch', of course. we can call it 'incorrect usage'.īut we can't change the fact that in actual reality DPI is used interchangeably with PPI when referring to image resolution.

We can hate it, dislike it, disagree with it all we want. and the term 'dpi' was already deeply ingrained in the industry by then. Maybe if Adobe started using the actual term 'ppi' in their UI back then it would have helped make the use of PPI more widespread. the example brought up below by David Creamer is yet another confirmation for this. obviously, it started before the 'pixels/inch' measurement came into use (as you also know).Īnd people in the industry often keep calling it DPI these days as well.

but that's how people in the industry referred to image resolution: DPI (as I'm sure you know anyway). Image resolution has never been referred to as DPI in the ID or PS UIs. Right because they wanted to make it clear that image resolution was measured as Pixels Per Inch (pixels/inch).
