Quick answer: when should you use DPI Changer?
Use Imagic AI DPI Changer when you need to change the DPI metadata on an image without resizing pixels. It is best for meeting a print shop's or stock-photo site's DPI requirement on a file that already has the right pixel dimensions, runs in the browser workflow, and does not require signup for the core tool.
DPI is just a tag telling a printer how large to print the existing pixels — check your target print size against the pixel dimensions first (size in inches = pixels ÷ DPI).
Which image tool should you pick?
| Job | Pick this | Why |
|---|---|---|
| meeting a print shop's or stock-photo site's DPI requirement on a file that already has the right pixel dimensions | DPI Changer | It solves this job directly with the fewest settings. |
| the image's actual pixel dimensions are too small for your print size — DPI metadata cannot add missing detail | Image Upscaler | That workflow changes a different property of the image. |
| Many files at once | Batch Processor | Batch mode keeps repeated work consistent and exports one ZIP. |
When does DPI Changer fail?
- It is not the right first step when the image's actual pixel dimensions are too small for your print size — DPI metadata cannot add missing detail.
- For production publishing, inspect the downloaded image at 100% zoom before replacing the original file.
