pages per inch. The number of papers that can be continued within a one inch thick stack of sheets of paper. A term used frequently in book production.
Pixel Per Inch. The frequency of the number of samples used to display an image on a computer monitor.
A measurement referring to the number of pixels in every linear inch of a digital image.
Pores per inch. A measurement of the porosity of foam materials.
The number of pages contained in a one inch stack of paper. to top
The number of pixels that fit (horizontally & vertically) into one square inch: generally used when explaining the effective resolution of scanned images. to top
The number of pixels in a raster image that will occur in one line in the span of one inch. The higher the PPI, the greater the resolution and the less distinguishable each pixel becomes.
Points Per Inch. Refers to the resolution of devices such as digital cameras, scanners and monitors
This is the resolution of an input device. Examples include digital cameras, scanners, and monitors.
This is actually what a scanners resolution should be referred to. PPI is the same as DPI and you see the terms used interchangeably.
This term stands for Points Per Inch and is a measurement of resolution, with more points per inch creating higher resolution. As a general rule, images used in print production should have a resolution that is twice the intended linescreen.
Pay Per Inclusion...fee charged for a site to be added to a search engine's database. This model is mostly associated with Directories but is also used by spidering engines...for example Inktomi...prominence The placing of keywords at the beginning of a tag or the top of a page. The closer the keywords are to the front of the tag or the higher they are displayed on the page the more prominent they are considered to be in relation to the rest of the page's text.
Pages per inch. A measure assigned to paper stock by the manufacturer to be used in calculating book bulk.
pages per inch. A measure of the number of pages per inch. Commonly utilized in the the book publishing industry.
sometimes termed dots per inch, this represents resolution
Pores Per Inch. Unit for expressing cell count of a foam.
Pages per inch or the number of duplex printed sheets in a one-inch stack of paper.
A resolution factor, which determines the physical size a raster image will be printed or displayed. Given a raster image, which, by definition, is a fixed number of pixels horizontal, by a fixed number of pixels vertical, ppi describes how many of the pixels in the raster image will occur in one inch. For example, a raster image which contains 400 pixels horizontal by 400 pixels vertical will be 1.33" x 1.33" at 300 ppi (400./.300=1.33). The greater the number of pixels, the less distinguishable each pixel becomes, making the output image sharper as the resolution increases-to the point that the output can reproduce additional pixels.
Short for pages per inch.
PPI is a paper term which refers to pages per inch or thickness of the paper. Book papers are generally made to a specific PPI. The PPI is important in figuring the bulk of a book (# of pages divided by PPI = Bulk). Sheets of identical weight can be made to a different PPI by essentially adding air to the paper when it is produced. Where much of what a consumer will pay for a book is based on the perceived value, the bulk of the paper can play a major role in that value. If a paper is quoted to you without a PPI, like 50# offset, make sure you get the PPI before giving the printer the order. It could vary from 600PPI to 400PPI which on a 256 page book could be the difference between 5/8" bulk and 7/16" ... a big difference. [Back
Pulses per inch. This refers to how many times the laser will fire per linear inch. PPI's of less than 500 may result in non-continuous engraving. For cutting, PPI's of 150 or greater are usually recommended.
Image resolution is the measure of the amount of information sampled from an image when using a scanner or digital camera.
A measurement of the number of pixels that will occur within the vertical and horizontal planes of a one inch areas in a raster image. The higher the number, the grater the resolution and maximum viewable size without aliasing. Pixelization – Process that results when image pixels are simply enlarged to increase image size, resulting in a lower PPI without increase in detail, resulting in jaggies along diagonal edges.
PPI specifies the resolution of an input device, such as a digital camera, scanner or monitor.
Pages Per Inch. Used to measure the thickness of paper.
Pages per inch; papers vary in thickness. The ppi count affects the thickness of the book.
Picks Per Inch. The number of weft threads in an inch. Could also be measured as Picks Per Centimetre (PPC).
Pores per inch, term applied to describe pore sizes in ceramic foam filters.
Paper per inch, or the number of sheets in a one-inch stack of paper; used to describe the bulk of a paper.
A measurement of the resolution of a computer display, related to the size of the display in inches and the total number of pixels in the horizontal and vertical directions also referred to as the pixel density.
