Ok ok... I know its "Dot per Inch" but is 100dpi 100x100 pixels or 10x10
pixels or something else? Sometimes its hard to print high quality pictures
and I want to adjust the pictures I am printing to use only the desired dpi,
not more. If I want to print in 300dpi and it is 300x300 pixels and I have a
picture with 600x600 I will resize it before sending to the printer.

So... What is dpi?

http://db.tidbits.com/getbits.acgi?tbart=05284 is also a good page to
check out. It discusses some of the history behind dpi and explains why
96 dpi usually isn't 96 dpi.
