After exporting. The images of the same PDF are at different DPI

I noticed that when exporting to PDF, setting DPI is different.

While in JPG you set DPI here:

For PDF it is here:

I made tests, I noticed that in the PDF document the DPI does not necessarily stay the same in the whole document.

In PDF you can have an image at 200 DPI, while another image in the same document is at 72 DPI.

Quite different from JPG, where everything is at the same DPI.

Regardless of whether or not the images were at different DPI while editing.

Here I have a video demonstration, I imported a PDF in Corel.
And the images in the PDF are at a different DPI.

My question is:

Even if the DPI of the images are different during editing, how can I export to PDF and set everything at 300 DPI ?

    You can't.

    PDF and JPG are two totally different file formats and the filters work differently.
    While you are limited to one single DPI setting and color mode in a JPG, PDF can hold many images of different resolution and color modes and, as you know of course, also vector objects.

    The PDF export dialog says "Downsampling" and that is what you can do, downsample to a set dpi value, but images that are below that value will not be upsampled on export.

    There are macros that can resample all images in a CDR in one shot before you export.
    I think this one should do what you want for example.
