PS-- this did not require any changes to our programs-- they had enough white space at the top and the bottom that they printed correctly at 12 CPI.

I had problems aligning the text with the overlay. My solution was to shrink the overlay to 83.33333% of the original scan -in the horizontal direction only-. This allows me to print at 12 CPI instead of 10, and allows for better alignment. I didn't really have a problem with the vertical size.

Of course, this results in a white strip down one side of the page, which I filled in with a copy of our logo, name, and address (turned 90 degrees). And I placed the logo on the overlay -after- I did the shrinking so it wasn't distorted.

It does make it easier to align the overlay-- since you have that 'extra' space at the side. Trim all of the white from the left and top edges of the overlay-- so it is crammed into the upper-left-hand corner. This makes aligning the overlay and the text easier, since the only adjustments you can specify are "down" and "across."
