iPhoto Book Page Resolution?

When making 13 x 10 photo book in iPhoto, what does the page size equate to in resolution? In other words, if I wanted to add a photo I created in Photoshop to my iPhoto book, how large should I make it?

iPhoto '11, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)

If the photos is less than 180 DPI you will get a warning message - you can choose to continue or abort and use a different photo or place in a smaller frame


Since 13 * 180 = 2340 and 10 * 180 = 1800 your image must be a minimum of 1800 x 2340 pixels to avoid a warning message (and for good quality printing)


However why not use the full resolution that you have - reducing it guys you nothing and may reduce final quality
