Stills from HDV video to print in Photoshop

I create a still in my Final Cut Pro by File/Export/Using Quicktime Conversion: Format/Still Image and I save to desk top.

When I import it to PhotoShop I go to Image/Pixil Aspect Radio/HDV Amamorpic (1.333) so it looks correct, but when I print it the aspect radio is wrong.

Is there anything I am doing wrong? Please help.

Mac Pro 3GHz, Mac OS X (10.4.7), Memory 4 GB; 4 500 GB Internal, 3 External Harddrives; 4 GB Ram

Sounds like you need to change the pixel aspect ratio of the images to square in Photoshop and then resize the image width back to 1920 pixels using image size.

Photoshop is just displaying the images correctly for screen purposes as opposed to the way they are actually saved out from FCP.
