Bug Description

Binary package hint: evince

If I encode an 850x1100 image with the "-dpi 100" option, it's written into the INFO block as reported by djvudump. If I then encode a 425x550 image with the "-dpi 50" option, it should, when viewed in Evince, show up at the same size--at 100% zoom, both should be the size of a standard letter sheet. However, in this case, the latter image shows up as half the size of the former. This makes, for instance, 72dpi scans difficult to view at the standard zoom levels, because they're ridiculously tiny, and it makes 300dpi scans huge and slow to open.

thank you for your bug report, the issue is an upstream one and should be sent to bugzilla.gnome.org, where the people writting the code will read it, by somebody who use djvu and understand the issue
