Hope someone can help here...

I've got a new craft magazine and want to make something from it. The templates for the pattern say...

" shown at 50%
enlarge to 200%"

My little brain can't work this out!!

I'm using a copier within a printer to do this (don't know if this is relevant!)

So....do I press 'enlarge to 200%' or have I got to firstly enlarge to 100% (and surely enlarging) from 50-100 is the same as 100-200????) then enlarge that template to 200% (or in fact will both of those given me the same result?)

HELP!
