As far as I know, it isn't... XP believes it is 96. But Adobe Reader itself has a DPI setting... and there is no reason to think that it is set correctly. Mine has two options: either a) system default - 96 or b) a "modified resolution", which in my case is chosen and set to 110 -- and I have no idea where that comes from; I have never set it myself. Anyway, Windows - or any Windows application - has no knowledge of the real size of the screen so any DPI value is just guesswork and usually used just to scale text and not to configure the technical system.
