The only advice you really need is changing the pixels-per-inch (ppi) setting when opening the PDF in Gimp. File -> Open and select the PDF file. You get a dialog as the screenshot. Change the resolution from 100 ppi (Gimp default value) to 300 ppi (suitable for printing) One thing to note. The PDF will be rasterized and text converted to an image. Otherwise the image will look exactly the same as the PDF and print the same as the original doc paper size.
