[Inkscape-user] Automatically fitting A4 image to A4 page?

People,

After I have scanned an A4 page, it would be nice to import it into Inkscape and automatically fit it to the A4 outline to continue work on the page (to add text and signature images etc to it) but it doesn't seem possible? I have to manually scale the image which is fairly tedious . .

Suggestions?

Thanks,

Phil.
