You should use width="5.25in" to set the viewport area reserved for the graphic, and then scale="50" will make it half that size. The contentwidth attribute specifies the size of the output image. In your example, the contentwidth attribute is overriding the scale attribute. See the second-to-last bullet item in this section:

Yes Bob. But would this work for both PDF and HTML? Most people are
saying to keep two sets of graphics for both html and pdf. But that's
lots of work. I wanted to use the same image for both html and pdf, and
possible add a pop-up scaling for my html stylesheet.

I await your final input regarding width="5.25in" for both html and pdf.

Hi again bob. <graphic width="5.25" scale="50"> didn't work. Is the
default value of ignore scaling true? doesn't matter what I do the
scale="x" factor doesn't work. Below is my syntax. And it doesn't matter
if use graphic or imagedata.

<graphic fileref="images/04_VideoLogix.png" scale="75" width="5.25in"/>
