Non-integer DPI


Recommended Posts

Hi,

it seems it is not possible to set non-integer dpi value in Affinity Photo for desktop (Windows 10). The value set in Document / Resize document is always rounded to the nearest integer value. This is unacceptbale in, for example, lenticular printing, where dpi must be set with precision 0.01 dpi or better. Also, resolution of some printing devices such as flatbed Oce Arizona is not integer (for example, 601.183 dpi), and rounding to integer mostly destroys the lenticular print.

When I open an image with non-integer dpi, weird things happen. If the dpi was set in Photoshop, Affinity Photo seems to round it. If the dpi is set in GIMP, Affinity Photo reads it as a completely different value (580.574 dpi in GIMP is interpreted as 290 dpi in Affinity Photo).

Or, maybe I do something wrong...
