Yes, the size is an adjustment you'll make in post. Shoot RAW, which is always maximum resolution, and convert to a size that is higher resolution than what you need. Then after cropping and any PhotoShop adjustment, resize DOWN to the publisher's spec using bicubic sharper. If you convert to maximum ACR size, you'll be in the neighborhood of 50 cm on the long side at 300 dpi. You have plenty of resolution to work with.
