It is indeed! What you've found has been found and fixed earlier, last
autumn, by Ross Moore. The cause is that PostScript and PDF divide one
inch into 72 equal parts (TeX big points, bp) while TeX gets 72.27
equal parts from 1".
Just update MiKTeX! If you don't want to perform this, you can also
change graphics.sty:
I'm trying to see how to force this extra scaling to occur,
using the macros provided in LaTeX's graphics.sty .
Here's how to remove the discrepancy:
\piccommand
}\dimen0=\wd0 \dimen2=\ht0
\edef\next{\egroup
% \def\noexpand\...@urx{\strip@pt\dimen0}% replace these 2
lines
% \def\noexpand\...@ury{\strip@pt\dimen2}% with the 2 that
follow
\def\noexpand\...@urx{\the\dimen0}%
\def\noexpand\...@ury{\the\dimen2}%
}%
\next
\...@defaultbp\gin@llx{0}%
\...@defaultbp\gin@lly{0}%
\expandafter\...@defaultbp\expandafter\gin@urx
\expandafter{\...@urx}%
\expandafter\...@defaultbp\expandafter\gin@ury
\expandafter{\...@ury}%
The difference occurs due to the last 2 lines, which provides a way
to scale into big-points, using the factor: 72/72.27 ~ .996264
