The file format of the picture affects the math, so does your version
of Quark.
For my tests, Quark's measurements are set to points and the res of
the doc is 72.
In version 4 the bounds of image 1 for eps and pict are based on 72
In version 4 the bounds of image 1 for jpg and tiff are based on 75
In version 6 the bounds of image 1 for all 4 of those formats are
based on 72
The pixel dimensions of my 300dpi test image is {0,0,2160,1439}
eps and pict return {0,0,518,345}
jpg and tiff return {0,0,540,360} in QX4
jpg and tiff return {0,0,518,345} in QX6
300/75 = 4 = 2160/540
300/72 = 4.167 = 2160/518
Now repeat with pictures at other resolutions.
My original judgment -- "mostly useless" -- is particularly harsh,
especially as you're going to have to turn to another app to get the
resolution anyway, so you might just as well ask for the size there.
