This is a known problem of the rsvg library which I suspect GIMP uses. It does not understand percents in font-sizes and thinks that 75% means 75 pixels :( It also does not understand superscript and subscript.
Even though this is a problem of the GIMP, not of BKChem, I tried to fix it. For this reason there is the SVG output plugin (File->Export->SVG (Cairo)) using cairo which produces SVG much better suited for GIMP, but without the embedded chemical data.

When I insert an atom or add a text (for example "H2O" or "NH3"), convert the numbers to subscript, save the file and the open it with GIMP (or similar programs) I've got the Numbers as very big chars over half of the picture. Opening it with BKchem works fine.

I'am using BKchem 0.13.0 with ubuntu 9.04 (and tried it also with 9.10 - same problem).

I really like to use this program (besides there is no really alternative for me in open source world) but I need to add the created drawings to reports (in this case an openoffice document) and this bug is pretty annoying when trying this.

I added an example where I let BKchem auto crop the image (without the Numbers are even much bigger)...

greetings
