I need to specify the absolute position of an Image in the pdf to be created and I only know its position in cm.

I am not sure I have the whole context to answer this question, but in Cocoa and Quartz the coordinate system is in terms of points, not pixels, and you have 72 points per inch. The rendering system takes care of converting points to pixels depending on the output device.

So when you render into a PDF, a 72 point line is an inch line.
