This should be possible by specifying /PrintScaling /None in the ViewerPreferences dict (see section 12.2 in ISO 32000-1:2008.
Update: Try this:
[ << /ViewerPreferences << /PrintScaling /None >> >> /PUT pdfmark See http://www.digipedia.pl/usenet/thread/1191/1835/
Update: From Poster
The final solution was to add the above postscript line into the postscript generated by PDF Creator using the "Actions" feature of PDF Creator. (Action Before Saving)
http://www.pdfforge.org/content/actions
I also used this link as inspiration for the action and looked at the preinstalled vbs scripts to figure out what needed to be done to add information to the convert to pdf postscript file.
PDFCreator Document View settings - It seems that a script similar to this used to be included in PdfCreator.
Anyway this is my final script that can be added to Pdf Creator to add the PrintScaling default property.
