If a map uses a graphical scale, what happens to its accuracy if the paper map is photographically enlarged or reduced?

Question

Accepted Answer

The graphical scale remains accurate.. The graphical scale is specifically designed to remain accurate even if the map undergoes photographic enlargement or reduction. Verbal and RF scales lose accuracy in such processes. (Source 2 states: "If a paper map is photographically enlarged or reduced, but the graphical scale is included in the same process, then the graphical scale is still accurate whereas the verbal and RF scales are no longer accurate after enlarging or reducing.
