However, I have found that:
1. EXIF data in the JPEG will make it puke.
2. It doesn't seem to always correctly calculate width/heigh/DPI
independently -- It seems like the numbers get shifted so that the
total:
$WIDTH * $HEIGHT * $DPI is correct, but not the individual numbers...
This has been my experience with a large variety of images from
disparate sources, many of which are probably badly-formated JPEGs in
the first place, so it may be a non-concern if you have quality
image-editing tools making the JPEGs.
Note that PDI info is returned only in "recent" versions of PHP / GD.
