Thank you... but the image is unfortunately 144 DPI... but I can do place holder.
I have a question about DPI.
If an image was
ORIGINALLY a certain DPI, meaning it was at a certain scale with dots/pixels/detail per inch, has been completely cleaned up and effectively its "dots per inch" have been changed drastically through that clean up (ie: smoothing, bolding/solidifying of colours, removal of imperfections and "sand"
).............then at that point, is the DPI of the image no longer relevant?
Sure, when we are talking about an original scan, totally uncleaned, the higher the resolution will mean the more detail and hopefully the less clean up...........but after it has been cleaned, then all the imperfections a lower than 300/600dpi scan would bring, have been removed and the image much much clearer..........and ultimately, a high resolution?
Also, this image is bigger than it needs to and will be once its imported onto a 300dpi cover template.......so there will be no issues of distortion because it needs to re-sized/stretched.
Im not arguing here, it just occurred to me that surely the relevance of DPI once an image has been cleaned pixel by pixel..........is irrelevant, and perhaps the proof in the pudding would be if I had imported this onto the 300dpi template and
THEN saved and uploaded it, its DPI would be 300 and would anyone know or notice in any way that
THAT part of the cover was
ORIGINALLY 144dpi, as it no longer is an image that is of that quality due to the clean up done?
