Hi,
 The way to get the reference is ok for me, I've done the same. You should 
reduce the size of the image to the expected size of the reference, and 
keeping the same proportion from your main map.
 As an example, my main map is 500x400 and the reference is 150x120 (3,333 
less times the original size)
