I convert docx to markdown using pandoc 1.19.2.1 on OSX 10.12 with

pandoc -t markdown_strict --dpi=128 --extract-media=images mydoc.docx -o mydoc.md

I find that the image sizes in the markdown appear to be based on a 96dpi image resolution no matter what --dpi I specify, and also no matter the meta-data in the files embedded in the (word for mac 2011) document (PNG, 144dpi).

For example, one image in Word has been sized by the author to be ~4.65inches wide.  The resulting markdown for this image specifies a width of 443 pixels.  So I see that markdown is using a dpi of 443/4.65 =~ 96 regardless of efforts on my part to change this.

I would like to adjust this because the images appear smaller at this pixel size than the same images in Word.  I can of course write a post-processing script to adjust sizes on the markdown document, but would prefer to avoid.  It seems like the --dpi option makes sense to address my situation?

Thanks,
