dpi = dots per inch.  Think of it as the inverse or "inches per dot".

If a screen actually has 100 dots per inch, and the display software
knows that, and the display software does its job correctly (all big
"if"s!) that means that each dot is 1/100 of an inch across.

Ah, I thought that all programs would know that from some
configuration file (or BIOS info, or auto-detection, etc.).

Does that help?

Yes, very much.  Thanks!

Luis
