As you can see the image has been shrunk from the original svg.

Reproduced using GUI with Inkscape 0.92.1 r15371.

Related to report #1670913 "Default.svg using mm as units and scale of 1 causes problems"

As a workaround, a user default.svg can be set with units=px and scale=1, or units=mm and scale=3.77953.

Examples attached

not reproduced using Windows 10, Inkscape 0.92.1 r15371, and the command:
inkscape --file="exportBug.svg" --export-pdf="mycliexport.pdf"

could you indicate:
- which OS?
- which version of Inkscape?
- exact command used?

Now I cannot reproduce, using CLI or GUI. I may have erroneously viewed the OP's results.

Sorry for any confusion, I'll keep testing to try and replicate.

I'm still getting this bug. I think it has to do with changing the default measurement in document properties. If 9 switch from mm to put, it gets all screwy.
