Storyline iPad output. bitmap images and Retina displays

Apr 02, 2013

Hello,

If my course uses bitmap images at 72dpi and we publish for iPad, and the viewer is using an iPad with a Retina display, will they see the bitmaps as smaller or blurry images? Does Storyline adjust for Retina resolution, or do I need to import higher resolution bitmap imagery or something esle to cover that issue? Thank you.

Hey Richard,


The short answer I think is to just run a couple tests. I've instituted a rule of thumb that any SL projects I create that will display on an iPad, I set the image resolutions to 150dpi.

Unless your images really need the extra crispy rich visual appeal that retina display shows, there won't be much need for a hi-res image. Again, unless it's a vivid jpg photo not sure the retina display will make much of a difference.
