How to Render a 300 dpi image

I have used Photoshop for years and have become very comfortable with working in the 300- 600 dpi range for images. I am having a hell of a time producing an image at those values in Daz  for some reason. I went under the Render tab in the general section and typed in 2550 x 3300 dpi and the constrained proportions indicated a 8.5 x 11 image but it produced a 92 dpi monstrosity. I tried locking the proportions even typing 2550 x 3300 in the aspect ratio as an experiment as one youtuber advised yet it still didn't work. What am I missing? There must be a way to produce a specific quality and size of image in Daz Studio, could I get pointed in the right direction to do this.smiley

    Change the DPI in Photoshop. DAZ Studio doesn't add DPI to the render and the 92 DPI you are seeing is your screen resolution which Photoshop shows as the image DPI. The settings you are putting into the Render settings are correct for the size of print you want but they are pixel sizes not DPI settings.

  • Damn your one sharp edge. So I did a quick education on dpi and ppi. I then went back to Photoshop took it off "resample"..the devil... input a custom size and reduced the image from 25x31.25 to 8x10 and yes it is 300 ppi or as I incorrectly called it 300 dpi. My answer was in front of me.
