How to stop images from expanding when exported to pdf

Question

In Confluence, we use tiny image files as icons to indicate status of items in tables. When we export the table to PDF, the tiny icons are expanded to a huge size. How can we retain the original size of the icon images in an export?

Yes, it is. I've gone through this some months ago...

Thanks Thomas. That does indeed solve my problem, though it's going to be a pain to have to resize every image we use back to its original size, just to get around this bug. (We use a lot of images.)

Hi Jim,

this is a known problem. Look here:
