For me getImageResolution() always returns X and Y resolution in pixels per centimeter, no matter if I set it with setImageUnits() or not.

So an easy way to convert the result from pixels per centimeter to pixels per inch is to do this:

<?php
$resource
= new Imagick($path);
$imageResolution = $resource->getImageResolution();

if (!empty(
$imageResolution['y'])) {
$imageResolution['y'] =
round($imageResolution['y'] * 2.54, 2);
}

if (!empty(
$imageResolution['x'])) {
$imageResolution['x'] =
round($imageResolution['x'] * 2.54, 2);
}

?>

Please note that this method seems to return the image density, or DPI, not it's output resolution. If you want the output resolution, please refer to Imagick::getImageGeometry: http://www.php.net/manual/en/imagick.getimagegeometry.php

See http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/basics/#density for more infomation on the difference.
