Yes, I saw, but you didn’t include (or I couldn't find) the log output that showed the size of the NSImage object, even though you had a line of code to log it. NSImage, when given image data that has A x B pixels and a PPI (pixels per inch) of C, may choose to ignore C, rather than use it to compute C x D points. It’s not clear whether this happened in your case or not. It does this because PPI is often just wrong. The actual pixel dimensions are the only reliable numbers. > When I open this PNG with Preview.app it appears much larger (probably the > 1792 x 1798).

Same thing. Preview doesn’t believe any metadata about the image size. It just works with the pixels. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
