       Magic 7.1/7.2 does not handle floating-point values for bloat and
    shrink, so if Magic is not complaining about the syntax, then I will
    have to look into the reason.
    
       I could probably handle floating-point bloats and shrinks, but there's
    really no reason to.  What you really want to do is to use the "nanometers"
    keyword in the "scalefactor" line, and then use "shrink 25" instead of
    "shrink 2.5".
    					Regards,
    					Tim
