Tool LLM file: https://image.recordly.cc/image-dpi-checker/llms.txt
Product: Recordly Image
Engine: inspect

## Summary

Check image DPI metadata online alongside pixel dimensions and file details with browser-first inspection.

## User Intent

Use this page when you need to see the DPI metadata stored in an image while also confirming the actual pixel dimensions.

## Supported Inputs

- Formats: image/jpeg, image/png, image/webp, image/avif
- Upload label: Choose images to check DPI
- Defaults: {"inspector":"dpi"}

## Workflow

1. Upload an image: Drop a supported file into the browser inspector or choose it from your device.
2. Review the findings: Check the file details, decode status and metadata signals reported for this route.
3. Choose the next action: Use related tools to remove metadata, convert the image or resize the file when needed.

## Best For

- Checking print-oriented files before placing them in documents.
- Explaining why DPI metadata and pixel resolution are different.
- Reviewing image exports before resizing or conversion.

## Limits

- DPI metadata does not add detail to an image; pixel dimensions control actual resolution.
- Some web images do not store DPI metadata at all.

## Visible FAQ

- Does high DPI mean high quality? Not by itself. DPI is print metadata. The actual image detail comes from pixel dimensions and source quality.
- Are my images uploaded? Recordly Image is designed for browser-first processing where supported, so routine edits can happen on your device.
- Which image formats are supported? The first tool set focuses on JPG, PNG, WebP and AVIF where browser support allows reliable decoding and export.
- Can I use this on mobile? Yes. The shared tool surface is responsive, keyboard accessible and sized for touch input on phones and tablets.
