Sort of like what kokunin was saying, it's most polite to say both. Really, you start out with Hajimemashite ("This is our first time meeting"), followed by whatever you want to say about yourself as an introduction, and ending with doozo yoroshiku onegai shimasu ("I leave myself in your hands, so please take care of me").
Sorry that I didn't make it clear that you don't exchange one for the other^_^; It's just that when you only have one or the other Japanese phrase and you're trying to translate into every day English, I think it's acceptable to end up with "nice to meet you" for both.
