Printing & Export dpi Illustrator CS

I know in Illustrator 9 you can go file>document setup>printing & export, to change the resolution, but where abouts is this setting in CS?

Thanks.

Thanks but no its not that one, I need to alter the dpi rather than the ppi screen res.

Well thats what I thought but im working on a brief from Seven Seas (the vitamin people) and they have requested a set resolution for print, which you can change in Illustrator 9 as mentioned before, but I cant find it in CS.

Its output for print, doesn't need to maintain editability. I'm confused why they're asking for higher res even though its vector graphics.

I have spoken to them since and apparently its ok now, they can do it at their end. Whatever they're gunna do.

Thanks though for you help
