FAQ

Is higher PPI always better?

It depends on viewing distance. 110–160 PPI is sharp for desktop monitors; phones viewed up close typically need 300+ PPI.

What is dot pitch?

The physical size of one pixel in millimeters—25.4 divided by PPI. Smaller means a denser screen.

Does it work for ultrawide monitors?

Yes—any aspect ratio works as long as resolution and diagonal are correct. Curved displays are approximated as flat.
