I am new to these lists, and it is interesting to see how much energy is wasted on something totally irrelevant to the subject i.e. get terrence of the list ;-) My question is, if I ask a question, will it receive the same amount of attention? Or should I ask; will it receive the same amount of devotion? If it does, then surely I must get an answer to my question. So what is my question? How do I create an graphic with a higher dpi than the default 72 (or more accurate ppi?), and save it as an tiff file, not a postscript file? The Gimp manual suggest saving the file as a ps, but I would prefer using tiff format at this stage (still learning so one step at a time) Then also, if I want to do a poster (with a higher dpi than 72), following the suggestion in the Gimp manual, Gimp creates a huge file, and doing anything useful with Gimp becomes impossible. Thanks a lot (I am sending this to both the user and developer list, as I am not sure where the terrence thing originated from :-))
