Correct answer

You should be able to retrieve the PPI of an embedded image with something like this:

var imgPixels = RasterItem.boundingBox[2];

var imgWidth = RasterItem.width;

var imgRes = imgPixels/actWidth*72;

But if the if the image has been scaled disproportionately it won't be a true PPI by using only one dimension.
