The&nbsp;raster&nbsp;layers&nbsp;do&nbsp;not&nbsp;take&nbsp;the&nbsp;DPI&nbsp;into&nbsp;account.&nbsp;If&nbsp;the&nbsp;dpi&nbsp;changes&nbsp;to&nbsp;lets&nbsp;say&nbsp;48,&nbsp;only&nbsp;1/4&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;map&nbsp;image&nbsp;is&nbsp;filled&nbsp;in&nbsp;with&nbsp;the&nbsp;raster&nbsp;layer.&nbsp;The&nbsp;raster&nbsp;image&nbsp;looks&nbsp;like&nbsp;it&nbsp;is&nbsp;covering&nbsp;the&nbsp;right&nbsp;area&nbsp;geographically,&nbsp;but&nbsp;it&nbsp;is&nbsp;just&nbsp;not&nbsp;big&nbsp;enough&nbsp;to&nbsp;fill&nbsp;the&nbsp;map.
