But if it was photoreduced then the fonts and symbol size shouldn't change.
If you printed the survey at 1:1000 and photoreduced it to 1:2000, the symbols and text would be halved in size by the photoreduction. Just printing at 1:2000 will give symbols and text twice as large as this, so changing base-scale from 1:1000 to 1:2000 should double the symbol and text sizes. And it sounds like it does for you...
That makes sense. Quite why I couldn't manage that logic last night I don't know. Putting that para in the thbook might allow confused people like myself to get their heads round it (as clearly the current text didn't quite do it for me).
