Lucky guess, I think. The information consumers get from their scanners
is pretty darn close to useless. However, some scanner specifications
give an "optical" resolution. If yours does, that is the magic number.
If not, the maximum resolution is the next best guess. (Though I've seen
some scanners with optical resolution < max resolution. At least in those
cases the manufacturer called the max resolution "interpolated.")

In gimp, "Scale" changes the size of the image by scaling the picture, and
"Resize" changes the size of the image by clipping or padding.
