I need to programmatically determine the dpi of individual monitors on a
multimonitor system. I'm using Screen.AllScreens to get the monitors but
that only tells me their resolution in pixels. Can someone point me in the
right direction please?

Thanks.

You could manually convert it assuming you know, or could extract the
monitor sizes. Its along the lines of :

Resolution (pixels) / Screen Size (inches) = DPI
