PPI or pixels per inch
<Back to Last Page> <Full Glossary>
Definition:
PPI or pixels per inch is a measure of the number of pixels displayed in an image. A digital image is composed of samples that your screen displays in pixels. The PPI is the display resolution not the image resolution. (Adobe Photoshop uses PPI and Corel Photo-Paint uses DPI for image resolution so it's no wonder everyone is confused.)
Also Known As:
