Magnification on film is about focal/distance

If you obtain 4"x6" prints that ads a 4.2x magnification over film size, so:

Print size (at 4"x6") = Real world size x 4.2 x focal(mm) / (1000 x
distance(m)) 

Beware that focal lenght of the 28-135 changes at close focusing distances,
so I would use the 135mm focal value in order to obtain a greater focusing
distance.
