Thanks Jason, Nice to know that the scale is 1:1 on the import. For 
logos and graphics that aren't specific to a footprint, I'd want the 
ability to resize them in the pdf software realtime.. just like I can do 
with text labels.

Here's the link to the online tool that does it if anyone else finds it 
useful: http://escalalibre.com/edwt/kicad_sizeConverter.php
