Question about printing scan sheets for Scantron Scanner

rbuser

The subject just about says it all... I need to print some information on a
preprinted scan form used in a scantron scanner... One of the problems is
filling in the "bubbles" to identify the form when the form is later
scanned... the alignment needs to be exact... each printer seems to be
unique in the alignment... they're all close... but a little different...
(even two printers of the same model might print slightly different)....
therefore the user needs to be able to "tweak" the printout a pixel at a
time (horizontal and vertical) to match their particular printer... any
ideas about the best way to accomplish this? Thanks for any suggestions.

You can automate this by looping through the objects in the report, updating
their position, and regenerating the report. Here is a demo which does that
by letting you shift the report using a group of buttons.
