  RE: From Screen to Paper Printing (PPI/DPI Question)
 
(...) No, POV-Ray's rendering engine doesn't really care what the dimensions of your image are. It only cares about what you tell it the aspect ratio is. If you render with a default camera (4/3 ratio) to a square output image, you'll get an image (...) (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general, lugnet.cad.ray)

(...) No, Bram is 100% correct -- the resulting image is distorted unless I account for the proportions of the image POV expects to render. -- Hop-Frog (23 years ago, 20-Dec-01, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general, lugnet.cad.ray)

  RE: From Screen to Paper Printing (PPI/DPI Question)
 
(...) You may want to make it 6400x4800 or 4800x3600 so that the render isn't distorted. If you want a square picture, you will need to modify the camera object so that it renders to a square aspect ratio. Millions of pixels also take a while to (...)

  Re: From Screen to Paper Printing (PPI/DPI Question)
 
(...) I may still be confused slightly. From that article I gather that no printer (professional printing device) cares about anything above 200 LPI.

  Fluorescent Lights
 
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone has ever successfully created what looks like fluorescent lights. I have tried inserting area lights, but the shadows created were too harsh; it just looked like incandescent lighting. I also tried the looks_like (...) (23 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: From Screen to Paper Printing (PPI/DPI Question)
 
Steve, I can explain better using black and white printers; for color, just add four times the explanation. For a monochrome printer, there is a tradeoff between lpi and grayscales. If you have a 600 dpi printer, and you chose a 600 lpi screen, you (...) (23 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general, lugnet.cad.ray)
 
  Re: From Screen to Paper Printing (PPI/DPI Question)
 
I have been pondering this point for years, but don't know much about the half toning for CMYK ink mixing algorithms. Is this something you know about? Can you share some more info and or links to pages that explain the difference between printer (...) (23 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.publish, lugnet.general, lugnet.cad.ray)
