How do i find out the DPI of a photo ?

how do i determine what DPI my photo is ?
i have iPhoto 9.2.3
thank you
Donna

how do i find out the DPI of my photo ?
A digital image has no dpi, unless you print it. What is the pixel size of your photo? Select your photo in iPhoto and open the Info pane.
It will show you the width and height of your photo in pixel below the name of the camera; in the example above  the image is 3000 pixels wide. Printed at 300 dpi it will be 10 inches wide.  You need to know, how large the calendar is supposed to be printed, to see, if your photo has enough pixels.
How many pixels - width and height - does your photo have?

  • How can I find out the dpi of an image in Acrobat.

    How can I find out the dpi of an image in Acrobat. I have tried the pre-flight option but I really don't understand the pixels width x depth information that I get. I basically just want to know at dpi of a single image. Is there other program that will read my pdf file and tell me this information.

    Thank you, tylerdurdain! That was ridiculously difficult to find. Not sure what version of Acrobat you're using in your image, but for those using Acrobat Pro 11 (in Mavericks), it's buried under View > Tools > Print Production.
    That opens a panel on the right.
    To keep from having to chase it down this way each time, right click on "Output Preview" and choose "Add to Quick Tools Toolbar". That adds a button to the top right of the toolbar.
    Now you can call up the inspector with one click. Choose Object Inspector as tylerdurdain shows above, then click on the item displayed to get its properties.

    You can't just resize an image using Preview.
    Resizing an image will change its dimensions, but not the DPI/resolution.
    Images on the Internet are usually at computer screen resolution of 72 DPI. Some images in the web might be at 150 DPI depending on the type of website it is.
    Just resizing an image will make the image worst as you are only making the available pixels in the image larger and more spread out causing an even blurrier image.
    You need an image editor that will increase the number of pixels in an image as you increase the size.
    This is called interpolation. You are adding artificial pixels to an image to boost its DPI resolution.
    These pixels are created from the surrounding existing pixels in an image.
    Done correctly, you can get a pretty sharp image from a low DPI image.
    Done incorrectly, you can make the image very ugly, blurry and look very out of focus.
    You minimize this effect by  increasing the DPI of an image in small increments. I use 50 DPI increments.
    Some users use even smaller DPI increments like 25 DPI or smaller.
    I have a certain amount of impatience, so I use a larger upscale amount. I still get pretty good results that are more than just acceptable. Some user are just more particular about how much detail and sharpness they want their final image to be. I feel increasing the resolution of an image to 300-350 DPI using 50 DPI increments is a good compromise. My own user preference.

  • How to find out the DPI of an existing PDF doc?

    When I print a doc/web page with a pdf printer driver then I can adjust the DPI for the print.
    Ok. But how does this work the other way?
    When I have a pdf doc and want to find out the DPI with which it is printed ?
    How can I find out this value?

    PDFs do not have a dpi. Only individual raster graphics in a pdf have a
    resolution. In a single pdf there can be several different raster and
    vector graphic objects.
    The Acrobat application doesn't control the dpi that a printer uses to
    rasterize a printed pdf file. That is done by the printer driver---most
    often an OS function. The dpi uses to print a pdf has nothing to do with
    the pdf specification.

  • How can I find out the overall time and not only the time of a single clip?

    I have set up two cameras in one room. Both cameras record the same thing from different perspectives at the same time. I have found an interesting scene for video 1 (recorded by camera 1). Now I would like to find the time at which the interesting scene takes place in video 2.
    However, I have not seen any way to get displayed, at what time the scene starts in relation to the total length of the video (e.g: scene starts after 5 minutes from total 10 minutes).
    The indicated time refers only to a part of the clip and not to the overall project, even if a special clip is not selected. Does anyone know, how I can find out the time?

    Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backup.  It will be shown just below the Back Up Now button at the bottom.

  • How can you find out if another VI running on the same computer and how can you find out the name of that VI?

    Suppose that several VIs running simultaneously on the same computer. How can I find out the names of the running VIs, from another VI?
    If the already running VIs are clones of the same basic VI, open and run with the option "Prepare to call and forget", how can I find out the names and index of each clone? 

    I had an application where I spawned (= ran with Start Asynchronous Call) multiple (reentrant) copies of VIs, and would occasionally "lose control" of them.  I needed a way to find all VIs that were running "Top Level" and stop them (so I didn't have to log off from Windows).
    I used the Application Property "All VIs in Memory" to get an array of (wait for it ...) All VIs in Memory.  I took each name, opened a VI reference to it (simply wire the name string in, as the VI is, by definition, "in memory"), looked at its VI Execution State, and if it was Run Top Level, Invoked the FP.Close and Abort VI Methods.  [To prevent the VI that did all this from "committing Suicide", I compared the name string with the current Call Chain, and did nothing if there was a match].
    I think you could adopt this idea to do what you need.

  • How can I find out the mail server from email address?

    Hi:
    How can I find out the mail server from email address?
    for example: If I know the email address is [email protected],
    how to find the pop3 and smtp mail server?
    THANK YOU

    You can't tell by the email address since you can pretty much put whatever you want in there (especially if the SMTP server is not filtering anything).
    The header may be able to tell you something. There is a Received header value which looks like it has the routing information although I am not sure if this is a complete trace or just the last hop the message took.

  • How can I find out the screen size of the users moniter using the Acrobat SDK?

    How can I find out the screen size of the users moniter using the Acrobat SDK? I need to know how much sreen real estate that is available on the users moniter. Is there some call that I can make from the SDK to discover the maximun X and Y coordinates?
    Thanks,
    Gregory

    Currently, I am testing on multiple moniters and it is defaulting to the moniter designated as the #1 moniter. For our purposes, this is acceptable. Once the two documents have loaded, the user can move and re-size at will.

  • How can I find out the apn number of the battery without having it?

    I dont have the battery of my iphone 5 anymore but how can i find out the apn number of the battery? I would like to change it but i need to know the apn number to choose the right battery.

    Apple does not provide any user-serviceable parts (other than accessories or sometimes a SIM card tray).
    Therefore, there are no legitimate iPhone batteries available for sale anywhere.
    Anything you find will either be salvaged, counterfeit, or stolen.

  • How can i find out the file size of a Keynote on an iPad please?

    How can i find out the file size of a Keynote on an iPad please?

    I think a rule of thumb is what you're looking for.
    Full bandwidth CD audio (AIFF): about 10 MB/min
    Apple Lossless: about 5 MB/min
    MP3 @ 256k: about 2 MB/min
    MP3 @ 128k: about 1 MB/min
    Of course the MP3 file size is exactly linear with bit rate.
    As for sound quality:
    Apple Lossless is, as the name says, lossless.
    MP3 @128k: fine for listening in the car or the kitchen etc. If you have an audiophile sound system, this will remind you why you spent all that money.
    MP3 @256K: barely distinguishable from CD on very good equipment.
    MP3 @320K: probably not distinguishable from CD.
    I presume that since you're talking about importing classical CDs these are ones you own. Remember you can always do it again if you need higher fidelity or if better technology comes out. I import most CDs at 128k, since most of my MP3 listening is in the car, or walking, or as background. And I can always play the CD if I want to sit and listen.
    The logic for purchased music is totally different -- you probably won't get to upgrade that without buying it some different way. So buying 128k MP3s (or AACs) is something you'll probably regret later. Buying 256k MP3s is a lot less problematic.

  • How can I find out the date of a movie I am trying to pre-order if the date is not available/showing in the "manage pre-order" section?

    How can I find out the date of a movie I am trying to pre-order if the date is not available/showing in the "manage pre-order" section?

    Thanks so much for your reply King_Penguin. No, sadly there is not indication of the expected release date on the film, it's no where to be found. I have also tried to look in other places online, but no luck. I guess your latter statement jives more with my situation, that  being the studio/rights-holder hasn't feel inclined to provide the date.

  • How do I find out the exact path of each and every file that LabVIEW finds and loads into memory for a given top level vi?

    How do I find out the exact path of each and every file that LabVIEW finds and loads into memory for a given top level vi? There is probably a trivial, easy way to get this info, but I have not yet found it!  Thanks..

    Or if you want to grab all the paths programatically, try the attached VI.
    Open the top level that you want all the paths from and close all others, then open the
    attached and run it. It will return an array of all the VIs that the VI
    in question uses, including vi.lib VIs. You can filter these as well if
    you like.

    Using the Abort button to stop your VI is like using a tree to stop your car. It works, but there may be consequences.
