Dragging Image onto canvas changes image size

when I create a new canvas say 8.5x11, then try to drag a 4x6 size image onto it, it is not 4x6 on the canvas. it is smaller, is there a way to make it stay the same size.

Brian,

The resolution (ppi) of your cnavas is different from that of your 4x6. Make your canvas the same resolution as the image and it will look right.
