A map is to be enlarged from A4 to A2. By what factor does each linear dimension increase, and what should happen to a 6 point label if its printed size is to be preserved?

  • A.by 4, so the label becomes 24 point
  • B.by 1.4, so the label becomes 8.5 point
  • C.by 2, so the label becomes 12 point
  • D.by 2, so the label stays at 6 point

Answer: C

Each step up the A series doubles the area, so two steps double the linear dimension. Preserving the printed size of the lettering therefore means doubling the point size to 12. Leaving it at 6 would halve its apparent size relative to the enlarged map.
