why do you feel the need to convert these, at all?
a 16x20 enlargement directly from the transparencies will certainly top anything printed digitally.
as an example a 16x20 enlargement from a 35mm transparency will contain 354 dots per inch; while the same digital print will contain 249 dots per inch.
the film print will register as much higher quality, in addition to having depth, which digital printing cannot come close to.
so, why settle for second best?
Dots per inch is a printing term, that has nothing to do if the image is digital or not, so that statement is false.
