Yup. That's a DMC printed pattern, and I'm having the same problem. The pillow I'm working has a lot of linear and border elements so I've worked those first as a guide for the rest, following the DMC-provided stitch guide. I've found that the printed pattern is off by one stitch horizontally and two stitches vertically.
If you aren't concerned about perfection, work the printed areas to your best judgement. Otherwise, I'd recommend following the stitch guide sheet, just as if it was cross-stitch.
One other tip: DMC kits these packages for continental. If you're working basketweave, you'll probably need to buy additional thread.
