If you create a image new image with the size of two times two inches, and
|
|
|
|
|
don't have right-click|View|Dot for dot enabled. Then you should be able
|
|
|
|
|
to take a folding rule, and the measure the image directly on the screen
|
|
|
|
|
reading a size of two by two inches.
|
|
|
|
|
<P>
|
|
|
|
|
If you can't i.e the size you read is wrong then you have to adjust it in
|
|
|
|
|
this dialog. Gimp is using a manual settings by default (72dpix72dpi). If
|
|
|
|
|
you run Gimp on e.g a Unix workstation then you can probably use the From
|
|
|
|
|
X server option and get a correct value. If you run on PC hardware you will
|
|
|
|
|
most likely not be able to use the value given by the Xserver. You have to
|
|
|
|
|
measure and set hose values by hand which can be a bit bulky. There is two
|
|
|
|
|
fields one with the default measure unit DPI, and one with custom measure
|
|
|
|
|
unit which can be useful for us how are used to the metric system.
