Your question makes no sense to me. What makes you think your printed output is restricted to 72 dpi ? Are you printing an image that only has that resolution ? Cocoa's vector drawing is device independent and there is no assumed resolution. Yes, a one unit distance in un-scaled coordinates corresponds 1/72 inch. However, nothing stops you from drawing form {0.0, 0.0} to {0.24, 0.0} which is a short horizontal line 1/300 inch long. [0.24/72 == 1/300]

If you want one unit distance in your coordinate system to equal 1/300 inch, just scale the coordinate system by 72/300. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
