💡 Important note on DPI in raster images:
DPI (dots per inch) metadata in a raster image does not add pixels — it only tells the printer how large to print the image. If your source image is low-resolution (few actual pixels), no DPI setting will compensate for that. For best results, use original high-resolution source images.
DPI metadata support: PNG output uses the
DPI metadata support: PNG output uses the
pHYs chunk; JPEG uses the JFIF APP0 header; TIFF uses the XResolution/YResolution IFD tags. All are written client-side.
