Export TIFF via VBA with proper scaling

[caveatRob]

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to export a drawing page as a TIF file and am not sure of
how to represent the scale properly. The image is of a template that
must be 3" x 4" when it prints, but when I export to TIFF at 600 dpi
it appears much larger when viewed in a TIFF viewer.

What am I missing?

Hi Rob,

You say it "appears larger" in the TIFF viewer? Is there a zoom control
in that viewer? Are you at 100%?

I exported a simple 1.75in rectange at 600 dpi and opened it with
Microsoft Office Document Imaging. When I zoomed to 100%, it looked
about the same size as in Visio.
