Actually, xdv2pdf driver works OK, while xdvipdfmx driver uses some arbitrary scaling. (I might be that resolution wrong in original file, but \XeTeXpicfile "file" width5cm should result in exactly 5cm width, no more and no less.) Can you send me one of problematic PDFs? I would like to check whether the problem lies in ConTeXt or XeTeX ...
