why is it that when i use a photocopier to enlarge something by 61% gives me the correct size but when i use Coreldraw or Paint Shop Pro's resizing features it gives me something totally different?

That conundrum is right up there with, "Why do they call a pair of pants a "pair" of pants? There is only one. Perhaps we will learn the anwser to both when we get to the other side.
The photocopier enlarges through optics. There is no such a thing as a perfect lens so there sill be some distortions of the 61%.
The paint and draw programs enlarge mathematically, and as long as the program is written correctly, then the output would be closer to 61%
If you photocopy sheets that are larger than the copier and paste the sections together you will notice that the lines can be off slightly due to distortions in the lens. If you print multiple pages off on a printer and tape them together the lines will join better.
Hope this helps.
I do know why they call pants a pair but I can leave that answer till we meet on the other side

I'm looking to buy this Bosch mitre saw and I'm wondering if the holes shown in the pictures are where the material clamps go. The ad says there's no clamps included so I'll have to get them myself.
Are these the clamp holes and are they generally available aftermarket?
First, let me say those are beautiful! Second, I can tell you that on the Facebook laser forums those people have been hunting for sources on cutting and charcuterie boards to laser engrave various personalizations onto. Some are willing to pay for quality and the finished pieces show it. Others...
