DPI (Dots Per Inch)

DPI, or Dots Per Inch, determining image resolution, particularly in print media. It quantifies the number of individual dots a printer can place within a one-inch space. The higher the DPI, the more detailed and sharp the printed image will appear, enhancing the overall print quality. Typically, a standard resolution for clear, high-quality prints is 300 DPI, while lower DPI settings may result in pixelated or blurry images. In digital media, DPI also plays a role in how an image displays on various screens, though it primarily affects printed materials. Understanding and adjusting DPI settings is essential for photographers, graphic designers, and anyone involved in producing high-quality printed visuals.
