 Pixel is short for picture elements, which make up an image, similar to grains in a photograph or dots in a half-tone. Each pixel can represent a number of different shades or colors, depending on how much storage space is allocated for it. Pixels per inch refers to the number of pixels captured in a given inch. When referring to digital capture pixels per inch (PPI) is the preferred term, as it more accurately describes the digital image.
