Option to export 300dpi please !

[default089u6lttjo1s]

I would like to export jpg in 300 dpi and it's impossible (only 240 when the original image was in 300 dpi)... i don't understand why it is not possible with Lightroom ! 
I paid to use it, it should be normal to have this basic option.

This helped me too! You just saved me from a disappointed client. Internet coming in clutch.

Hi all, 

I need to export a photo in Lightroom 2021 as a JPEG with 300 DPI, how do I do that?
Or can I only use Lightroom Classic for that, if so how?

Thanks!

DPI is a screen and print concept.

In Classic they are nice and do the logic for you.

In Lr, you get to do the math. So determine the number of inches you want, and multiple by 300. Then in the export box, select "custom" under dimmension, and set the long side to be this number.

what should be the value of long side in that case?

[Rob_Cullen]

The "value of long side" is for you to decide. It will determine the pixel dimensions of the image you export.

eg. If you specify 300ppi and Long Side = 20inches, you will get an exported file that is 6000pixels on its long side.

(ppi x inches = pixel dimension)

If you specify 300ppi and Long Side = 5inches, you will get an exported file that is 1500pixels on its long side.
