DPI - definition

DPI, which stands for "dots per inch," is a metric for determining how sharp an image or printed output is. The term "dots per inch" (DPI) describes how many distinct dots may be printed or shown on a given surface of an image. DPI is used to describe the amount of pixels per inch (PPI) in digital pictures. For instance, a 300 DPI picture would have 300 pixels per inch. A picture will have greater detail and clarity the higher the DPI. DPI stands for dots per inch, or the number of ink or toner dots that may be produced on a printed surface. Compared to a printer with a lower DPI, one with a higher DPI can generate output that is higher-quality and more detailed. It is essential to remember that DPI and picture size are not the same thing. An image's size or resolution may not always increase as the DPI is raised. Instead, it will improve the image's clarity and level of detail.
The intended DPI of the printed product must be taken into account while preparing pictures for printing. For high-quality printed output, a DPI of 300 is widely accepted as the norm, however this might change based on the particular printing procedure and the intended use of the printed items.
