How to make Hiress screenshots?

[wasserfall]

My question, how can you make high resolution screenshots, i mean better than 72dpi, is this possible (my screen 1600x1200)

 

Thanks

edit graphics.cfg file, and replace ScreenshotQuality = 90 with =100

You can also change the fromat:

ScreenshotName = "ScreenShots/ScreenShot_%03d.jpg";

TO

ScreenshotName = "ScreenShots/ScreenShot_%03d.bmp";

 

if you wish to avoid the artifacts of using the JPG format compression.

72dpi is always for web. Higher res 100/120/150 dpi goes for solvent technics (print of banners, wrapps for vehicles, etc.). 300 dpi or higher goes for offset technics (print of books, brochures, catalogues, folders, etc.). When you make screenshot to share it on web 72dpi is enough. If you set your graphics to higher screen resolution (i.e. 1600 x 1200) you will simple get bigger photo but always in 72dpi. But I didn't know what Pilotasso said. Thanks mate for instuctions. Indeed BMP format is uncompressed format, then TIFF is compressed but high quality (good for printing, you can also add LZW compression to lower its "weight"), JPEG is stronger compressed with lower quality (not good for printing)

Nice to meet You :) We don't have printing plotter at our company but I prepare large format formats for vehicles, billboards and baners too. That's why I don't know much about Seiko or any other plotter...
