All templates are 1:20 scale. It is often useful to patially scale the templates in your design package,
and then scale the remaining ammount when printing. There are two common ways that this scaling
can be applied:
A) Scale the template by 200%, and the finished the design at 1,000% for a combined scaling of 2,000%.
This gives us an 1 inch = ten inches ratio when designing.
B) Scale the template by 166.666%, and the the output finished design at 1,200% for a combined scaling
of 2,000%. This givesus an 1 inch = 1 foot ratio when designing.
