you have a number of data mixed here:

filesize in bits, pixel size in pixels, dpi (resolution) which is not shown anywhere but has to be set in the printer settings when you print. This has nothing to with Mac or PC or Operating System. It is basic that you understand that there is (almost) no correlation between these data. Learn what these data mean and decide what you want to accomplish before you ask more questions.

You can see the 'show item info' is checked, yet only file name is displayed, no other file info.

PS - thank you so much for explaining how to do the simple task of pasting the screen print here - so much appreciated!

The Show View Options properties of a folder won't help you at all with the information you're trying to find. All it does is determine how big image icons will display in Icon View within folders, or on the desktop.
