The page size is 6"x9".

My PDF document contains a graphic that is 72dpi, it is 432x648 pixels which correspo nds to 6 inches by 9 inches at 72 dots per inch. The first (and only page) of the PDF is this graphic image.

I expect when I view it in the reader that if I view it actual size (zoom=100%) it should fit nice and neat within the screen, but instead viewing at 100% causes it to zoom way so only a small portion of the page is visible.

I'm not sure why this happens in Acrobat reader when it doesn't happen in other PDF viewers.

Thanks for any help or insight you can provide.
