I'm scanning some images with 300 DPI set in my scanner's TWAIN dialog, but actual image in XnView gets 761 DPI.

For some odd reason, dots per centimeter are translated to dots per inch.

300 dpc = 761 dpi

I have found that Paint Shop Pro sometimes do this with some of my images.

Your configuration of units (pixel / inch / cm/ ...) is OK? I don't have these problems.

Just a thought: What about the Use inch for print size (instead of cm) setting (Tools » Options » Browser » File List » Misc. » Details view)?
