I have this EXACT same problem! Austin, its true at the end of the day you have X pixels by Y pixels independent of DPI. But for some applications, they need the documents size expressed in "inches".
In other words, when you go to document properties, it will currently tell you the size based on 72 DPI, which will screw some applications up if its setup to only look at the document size in inches.
