Hi;

I asked:
Ok, I create an Image passing it a wmf file that is a placable wmf. It's
header has the values of:
bounding box: 06DF, F6F0, 080F, F788
twips/inch: 0048

decimal instead of hex from here down:
This gives us a size in device units of 304 x 144 and a physical size of
4.22" x 2.0". Note that as a metafile there is no dpi setting from this.

Here are the problems when I create a bmp from this metafile using
Image.Save()
1) It renders it at 96 dpi. But if I am sending this to a printer I want it
a 600 dpi. How do I set the dpi it should render the metafile at.

Questions:
1) How do I set the dpi it should render the metafil at? (Again, a metafile
has no dpi.)

You said:
1), I understanding you want to scale the picture.
You can call the DrawImage
e.g. DrawImage(img,0,0,100,100) so the destination image will be 100X100

The problem with that solution is the bitmap exists at 96 dpi so when
rendered to a 600 dpi printer each pixel becomes a 6x6 block of pixels. So
the final image looks clearly resized/enlarged. The beauty of metafiles is
they are vector based so a diaganol line looks clean at any resolution
because it is drawn to that resolution.

I need to know how to have a metafile render at a specified resolution.
Otherwise the metafile, instead of looking better than a bitmap, will
generally look worse.
