Is there a way to export the file as is no dpi changes. Or some plugin to help woth this seemingly simple problem?

Example:

5 images all edited to different sizes, eg 8x10 12x16 etc at various dpi for print.

When i export the dpi setting is fixed and messes up all the files. Now they are all one dpi and no longer theri respective sizes.

What software are you using that looks at the DPI value?

The DPI/PPI number is only useful during printing, and it is the first number discarded and recalculated by the printing software.
