> Inches, mm (used in PNG), pixels and points all have fixed relationships in CSS values: 1in = 72pt = 96px. This applies in all media, print or screen. So provided the metadata specifies a resolution, it's unambiguous. If there is no resolution metadata, then a pixel is just a pixel: the resolution is 1dppx = 96dpi. > > As for the relationship between "CSS pixels" and _actual physical_ pixels, well that's a different matter altogether. See #614 - still going strong, despite being closed for two years. Ok, so if I understand correctly - 72dpi in EXIF stands for Pt per inch, and is equivalent to 96dpi in css (which stands for px per inch).
