Screen vs Print PPI requirements
Jul 29, 2011
|
From the part2 Print tutorial.. excerpt below. I know its the case, but why? , If a screen image is displayed at 72 or 96 ppi and looks photo-realistic, why can't a printed image at the same ppi look the same?
By contrast, the image you see at the very top of this article is 520 pixels wide. Assuming even a low-end image resolution requirement of 200 ppi, if our aim is to maintain the photo-realistic quality you see onscreen, we would only be able to print that image at 2.6 inches wide.>
