For Vince: no clue how Photoshop does it, Photoshop just gives that opportunity. I can imagine that is for being prepared to do something in ImageReday or whatever. No clue. Again: for web (not speaking about PDF and such) it is totally unnecessary. And since Illustraor is vector not raster, it has very little to do with DPI or wha have you. I'd say go back to customer service or better yet: give them oinm screen a 72 and a 120 DPI and a 5 DPI sample.......no difference.

BUT! You'd have to "save as" to maintain the resolution like that. If you choose "Save for web", Photoshop automatically adjusts the resolution for 72ppi.

Yes it does, so what. It is well known default for JPEG's and GIF's.
Sorry, I was tired and not that clear.
But reading the OP again I am still in the mist. What does he want.
I am assuming his boss wants him to convert images to GIF 120 DPI for
the web.
I just state that 120DPI is a rediculous assumption for monitors. 72 is
what the monitor business makes of it.
Try importing an image into Photoshop or whatever and make it 5 DPI or 2
for the sake of it, leave size in inches or centimeters the same, do not
extrapolate. The result is the same.
