Metadata deep dive
Reads EXIF, JFIF, and PNG headers to extract DPI even when stored in different units.
Instant highlighting
Large typography surfaces the detected DPI so production teams can spot issues at a glance.
Multiple file queue
Load several assets and scroll through each DPI result without refreshing the page.
Local privacy
No uploads or accounts. Production teams can audit sensitive shots directly in the browser.
Batch friendly filters

Checker Questions
Everything you need to know about auditing DPI metadata.
Many cameras default to 72 DPI. Use the converter if you need to replace that placeholder value before printing.
The checker tries EXIF, JFIF, and PNG pHYs lookups. When metadata is absent it provides a safe estimated DPI based on pixel density.
Yes. Values are pulled directly from the file headers in your browser. No compression or editing occurs during inspection.
We currently focus on JPEG, JPG, and PNG exports. Convert RAW captures to one of these formats before checking DPI metadata.
Never. It only reads the metadata. Switch to the converter page to change DPI values.
Yes. The checker inspects X and Y density tags. When they differ, the UI displays the most restrictive value and surfaces both in the console log.
Most images return DPI in under a second because the tool reads metadata blocks directly rather than rendering the entire file.
While there is no PDF export, you can keep the browser window open to reference results or copy the on-screen DPI values into your QA checklist.
