I'm doing the following conversions to achieve a PDF --> TIFF to scale. It's
with 24x36" paper. The final image must be to scale.

pdftoppm -mono /the/pdf/document.pdf /the/resultant/PBMdocument.pbm
mogrify -format tiff -compress Group4 PBMdocument.pbm

The final TIFF image ends up 150% bigger. It actually occurs with pdftoppm.
I have no idea why. Has anybody tried this?
