Then you need to enlarge all things by factor √2, because it will be 
downsized in brochure printing.

I described it correct. You have missed, that my document has DIN A5 size.

I consider it a lot of work to enlarge the document by factor √2 and I 
do not like to always have to remember to scale correctly while working 
with the document. And you do not know how the automatic downsizing is 
done. For vector graphics like fonts or drawing objects, that might not 
matter, but I have not tried what happened to embedded raster images.

Kind regards
