Allow images files to be exported at higher resolutions
Option to export using dpi instead of ppi
Older versions of Illustrator used to have the option to export using dpi instead of ppi, when working with printing presses we need this option to be able to get good quality output without having to make images large by having to use 1200ppi to get best quality

I somewhat get the idea, but I can’t but notice the terms are misused.
A digital image can’t have a resolution in 'DPI', only 'PPI' — 'point or pixels per inch'.
DPI stands for 'dots per inch' and applies only to the input/output devices: printers, scanners, displays.
One is digital only, a relative coefficient, a ratio, 'pixel density'.
The other one is a real-world measure.It’s common to mix these up... Illustrator have been confusing these for a long time, and it finally got fixed only sometimes between CS4 and CS6.
However, a request is correct, having a larger resolution (in PPI) is a thing Ai for iPad could have.

Right now when I export a PNG file the resolution is very low and useless for printing. Exporting a png file in the desktop version allows me to customize the DPI output ... The ipad version needs this
