Don't you need at least 1400 (well, 1399) pixels to distinguish 700 lines? Otherwise they won't be lines anymore.

- dpwm 8y agoOr even 1401 if it's black on white. I was being a bit sloppy in my language. Lines was historically a common term for vertical resolution back when it would have been scan lines.
- vardump 8y agoResolution is historically and otherwise commonly expressed as line pairs, so I assumed you used "line" as shorthand for that.
- dpwm 8y agoThanks for that clarification. Nice to learn something new :) I was incorrect in my usage of the term. EDIT: Actually, if I was referring to TV lines then I guess I wasn't wrong, but "lines" is ambiguous to the point of confusion if n lines can mean a vertical resolution of both n and 2n.
