The pixel ratio is the ratio of the pixel's width to its height. If the pixels are square, the pixel ratio is 1 and the number of pixels in X divided by the number of pixels in y equals the aspect ratio. Pixel_Ratio = Pixel_Width / Pixel_Height X_Resolution / Y_Resolution = Aspect_Ratio / Pixel_Ratio See Aspect Ratio
