The pHYs setting solved the problems and now my output is as desired. I'm using the 1.1 development version, which is improved over 1.0 but still seems to miss the mark? If someone could give me a more detailed explanation of how to export and maintain size and resolution, I'd be greatly appreciative. When you are creating an ad or cover, you need to be able to generate a precise size at high resolution so that the output looks good. The layout and general operation seems remarkably similar. I'm assuming that the goal of InkScape is to be able to perform the same type of operations as CorelDraw. Why does the DPI and output size change?ġ0. If I reset the DPI to 300, my image size goes to 5000 x 7500? If I change the width, then the DPI drops to 96 DPI. Do you have to set the Image size or Page size or both?Ĩ. When I do this, the image size shifts to 3226 x 4838 pixels at 193.54 DPI but I wanted 1600x2400 300 DPI?ħ. I set the width and height to 1600 x 2400. I don't understand the Export Settings and the relationship between Page size and Image Size? I've selected "Page" as the export area since I'm trying to export the full document.Ħ. The Scale is set at 1.0 (I'm not sure what scale does but assume the default of 1.0 is reasonable).Ĥ. Using Document Properties, I set the width at 1600 and the height at 2400 px. I use the default pixel template as a starting point.Ģ. What I want to do is design a cover that is 1600px (wide) x 2400px (high) at 300 DPI?ġ. I come from a CorelDraw background and would like to use InkScape for cover design. Could some explain how to export a InkScape document and maintain the size (length and width) along with the DPI?
