Thank you Herco for taking the time to reply, much appreciated. Prior to my post, I chose the aspect ratio 3:2, image size Raw, and uncompressed and these were the settings used for the dimensions in the post. I haven't looked at jpeg yet but think that can wait. As you suggest, I will use uncompressed for real world use. Perhaps the problem is not being familiar with camera yet and probably the reason for the softness.
What still puzzles me is the DPI setting. With the Olympus file, I determine the physical print size (usually 33cms x 24.75cms) in a 4:3 aspect ratio which is not much different to out-of-camera size and then reduce the DPI to 300 (approximately 15%) which is normal for printing. The Fuji out-of-camera file by comparison is much larger as understood from your reply but for printing purposes, I would have to increase the DPI from 72 to 300, an increase of over 400% with the software resampling many, many pixels. I hope I have made my issue clearer.
