583% is the right number since that means just short of 6 time the original size. For your copying enlargements, you could do it in two steps by enlarging it to 1/12 scale, then doubling it to 1/6 scale. Copy the original with a times factor of 292% (takes it to 1/12 scale), then copy the new drawing with a times factor of 200%. The result will be the 1/6 scale. Bill
