Fireworks Pdf Export page is 4 times too large

Hi,

 

Using Fireworks CS5, when exporting a PDF using File>Export - the PDF document size is wrong for resolutions other than 72dpi.

 

If I make a 300dpi graphic, 10cm x 20cm and export as a pdf - it becomes a 41.7cm x 83.3cm PDF document. It grows 4 times (which looks similar to the ratio 72/300 px).

 

If you are only working in 72dpi - it is fine. But that resolution is no good for printing.

 

But if you need to send something to the printers, and they only accept PDF - you are stuffed. In my case today, I'm trying to upload a pdf onto a disc copying website for digital processing.

 

I've had this problem for many years - since CS4. Raised it a few times with adobe support- but didn't get a solution.

 

I'm not talking about the display (edit>preferences>page display>resolution). I'm talking about Document size.

 

(To see the real document size in acrobat - I use file>print and set the page scale to "none". Acrobat then displays the Document size)

 

To work around this bug, I've had to buy a 3rd party tool to resize my PDF's (verypdf ). I cannot find a way to easily resize the document in Acrobat 9 either .

 

Cheers
