The correct size can be achieved by pasting a Photoshop image into Illustrator.

Hello,
After reading more than 20 posts about Illustrator's incompetence when importing raster images, I still cannot figure out how to fix it.
In Illustrator, I need to trace a blueprint to scale. I load the blueprint into Photoshop and resize it so that 1"=1mm. Now I need to use this same scale in Illustrator with the Photoshop Image locked behind it to trace it. Every time I cut and paste, it appears as some random height and width. I have read all of the explanations that make some random claim about how Illustrator only see's images as 1/72" or 24% of the original at 300dpi.
I just cannot endure another ridiculous explanation of why this is not super easy in Illustrator. If they need to make it a special feature, they should. But knowing how little they care about useful updates, [ hidden link disabled by moderator ] I am willing to compensate if someone can just tell me what to do.
Assume that I have a 3000x3000 px document in Illustrator with rendering intent set to 300dpi
In Photoshop I have an 800x800 px document (at 300dpi)
I need to transform the image in Photoshop so that when I paste it into Illustrator it's dimensions are 800px X 800px.
I don't care why and I dont' care how complicated the steps are in Photoshop. I just need to be able to accurately import an 800x800 (300dpi) image that I can rely on the dimensions to trace.
If there is a simple explanation, I would appreciate it because after reading and reading and reading, I can't find one. Illustrator should have this built in as a simple, simple task. I apologize for sounding so grumpy, but seriously, I have no idea why anyone would do this. Thank you in advance for your explanation.
