What's in the RTF picw and pich tags is the actual width and height of the image in the document in pixels. It's not the displayed width and height. Those show up in the picwgoal and pichgoal tags. Then numbers after them are the desired display size but in twips, not pixels. Oh, and those values are specified as Long, not Integer.

You can find doucmentation on RTF tags
here[^].

There is no support for twips scaling in .NET. You can use the following function to convert twips to pixels on the current display device using it's DPI settings:

Private Function ConvertTwipsToPixel(ByVal lngTwips As Long, ByVal blnHorizontal As Boolean) As Long
    Const TWIPSPERINCH As Long = 1440
    Dim gr As Graphics
    gr = Me.CreateGraphics
    If blnHorizontal Then
        ConvertTwipsToPixel = CLng(lngTwips / TWIPSPERINCH * gr.DpiX)
    Else
        ConvertTwipsToPixel = CLng(lngTwips / TWIPSPERINCH * gr.DpiY)
    End If
End Function
