Inkscape Guide - Setting a Page Size For Final Output

Go ahead and open the document properties dialog.
File
-->
Document Properties...
On the
Page tab
, set your desired page size under
Custom Size
. Set the
Width & Height
and remember to have a check mark in
Show Page Border
.
An easy way to keep your page centered in the view window is to press the
5 key
above the main keyboard, not the number key pad.
When you're ready to output your finished image, go to
File
-->
Export Bitmap...
Remember to choose
Page
under the
Export Area
.
You'll see the
Bitmap Size
is the same as your
Custom Size
.
Choose the directory and file name you want and click
Export
.
Cheers

Thanks Jaws, I sort of remember having to do something like that when I made buttons for my web page. At the time I didn't get the full connection thanks for making things clear.
