Maybe I overlooked a feature in Qimage Ultimate but could the "Original Size" be shown in the Display Image Info window or somewhere else? I know this is an arbitrary flag added to Tiffs and Jpegs with Photoshop export but it would be handy for my customer images workflow. Now I either check the images first in Photoshop or I set a large print page in Qimage and load the images at Original Size and read the size in the printer queue text. Both not fast.

The number of XY pixels is shown everywhere if desired or not.  I know that.

However "Original Size" is a virtual/arbitrary size in imperial or metric units that Photoshop allows you to set in the Image Size menu and  Qimage Ultimate can read that size from a PS exported Tiff or Jpeg when "Original Size" is used to set a print size for that image. So Qimage Ultimate already can read it but does not display it other than in the print page queue as I already mentioned.

It is way easier for me when customers send me images with that "Original Size" set. They do not have to resample the image in PS either to add that size, the available pixels are just scaling to the cms/inches when the size is set and the resample function is off.

I would not mind if if the "Original Size" is shown in the image editor too or more desirable; a crop made there displayed in mm calculated from that information.

New update available which I believe will help.

I completely agree! PPI is the "standard" when talking about resolution, even where the metric system is used.

Regards.

Yes, PPI is the common way to describe resolution. I'm very much an advocate for the metric system but in photography and printing (roll widths for example) inches are still used and it will not change any time soon. Where I check resolution in Qimage, in the print queue, I see PPI and that is alright for me. The image file resolution to print size ratio is what matters to me then and the PPI number there tells me that instantly.
