Can you convert 72 dpi to 300 dpi?
IN PHOTOSHOP: Uncheck the “Resample” checkbox. Type 300 into the Resolution box. This will change the inches in Width and Height automatically to how large your photo can print when set to 300 DPI. Keep in mind that anything under 300 DPI (like 72 DPI for example) may not print at the highest quality.
Is 72 pixels per inch good?
The standard resolution for web images is 72 PPI (often called “screen resolution”). That means an image that’s about 400 or 500 pixels wide will take up a good chunk of the web page, and look pretty big on a monitor.
How do I calculate PPI from DPI?
ppi↔dpi 1 ppi = 1 dpi.
Is 600 dpi too much?
Generally, a 600 DPI scan is the best image resolution and pixel count for paper photographs. High resolutions above 600 DPI are better suited for professional archive work due to the longer scan time and larger storage requirements.
What is the difference between DPI and PPI?
We’ll keep it simple: DPI = Dots (of ink) Per Inch. Use DPI when you’re printing. DPI, that’s dots of ink on a piece of paper. The more dots of ink that are laid down within an inch, the sharper the image will appear. Sharpness is resolution. PPI = Pixels Per Inch. Use PPI with monitors and TVs.
What should the DPI of a scan be?
If you set the scan to 4×6 inches at 300 dpi at 200% scale, it will scan the 4×6 inches at 600 dpi (will create 2400×3600 pixels), but will set the image files dpi resolution value to the specified 300 dpi so that it will print 2x size or 8×12 inches size on paper at 300 dpi.

How much DPI / PPI do you need for an 8×10 photo?
In our Library of Congress digital preservation resources we recommend 300 dpi/ppi for 4×8, 5×7 and 8×10 photos but why not 1000 dpi/ppi? 2,000 dpi/ppi? 10,000 dpi/ppi? Is there a threshold beyond which the pixel density is of little or no additional value to us?
