Iggy,
Transformers are generaly "bi-directional" but work better in the direction
they were designed for.
I would try and get "full power" out of one backwards but it will work.
I've used 110-220 both ways and don "squirly" things with old 70Volt audio
transformers.

I would like to know what sorts of transformers are suitable for
converting 220v to 440v. Specifically, can I use a step down
transformer in the opposite direction, or will it not work at all due
to losses, etc?
My actual line voltage usually is 240-245 volts.

Could you explain more on this aspect of "transformers work better one
way versus the other"?
If one stays within the voltage and ampere ratings, any transformer
should work either direction.
