Aspect ratio of pasted vector graphics in Photoshop not respected.

Hi!

When I copy vector graphics from Illustrator into Photoshop, the aspect ratio isn't right. Here is an example:

01_Copy from Illustrator:

02_Pasting in Photoshop:

03_Look closely:

04_Very closely:

Does anybody know what's the deal with this?

Thanks!

Chris.

Ok cool, thanks!

Do you know if there is any way that it keep it proportional all the time, unless we unlink it?

I don't but in most cases 0.0x of a percent means less than a pixel. In reality you can't have less than 1 pixel so what it actually affects is the transparency on any edge anti aliasing.
If it is having a real affect  - ticking the link restores the ratio.
