I have a friend who is into electronic photography. Looking into some devices
to purchase, he noticed that some use dpi and others use lines to specify
the resolution(s) of the device. Can someone tell me what is the difference
between the 2 measures and how they can be related. Pointers to any relevant
reference would be appreciated.
