My 'prior' remains that the number of pixels is the same and that 300ppi is rounding. We will know for sure when somebody does a screen capture.

What we do know is that when exported, Notebooks and Print Replica handwritten notes are rasterized to page images in the PDF with dimensions 1860 x 2480. This is exactly the pixel dimensions of the Scribe.

So if there are more pixels on the newer Scribe the export of the same document will be different than when exported from the original, unless they scale down to the older scribe dimensions. But cloud should be storing only one document version, not two. It should not be scaling up and down all the time depending on which device last edited it.

But the physical dimensions are different, so even if pixels are the same there are some issues.

What unit is used for storing pen stroke coordinates? is it based on physical unit or pixel unit or % unit? How will notebook created on the original Scribe be rendered on the new one and vice versa?

Templates also have a fixed canvas size, expressed in pixels. If the pixel dimensions are different then the templates will be different.

This is why I think number of pixels is same. There are still issues but they don't seem as serious.

@jhowell might have some insight here.
