Don, create a
custom form size that encompasses the 18" ballot. In Ghostview, click on
Media, then User Defined. Type 800 in the Width Input window (expressed in
1/72") and then 1600 in the Height Input field. You form will then be big
enough.

Nell: aren"t there some changes that have to
be entered to customize ghostview for viewing an 18 in ballot. I don't
remember offhand, but will check. From her note it is a problem of viewing in
Ghostview. Is that how you see it?
Thanks: Don
John, print 18"
ballot artwork with Global's approved Linotronic driver electronically to 11
x 22" stock. Make sure you customize the form size in Ghostview to at
least 11 x 22", this way you will be able to properly view the entire
ballot.

Folks,
Please take a look at the following and see
what advice we can give to this account. Thanks,
John
I have "printed" my ballots to disk in preparation for sending
them to Doubleday. When I look at them in GhostView, the ballot
is very far down at the bottom of the page. I can see all of the
text, but I cannot see timing marks, cut marks, etc. Nor can I
see the "card number and sequence number". This makes me think that the
offsets need to be changed, but I have used the defaults, which I
thought should work. It would be very helpful if someone can tell
me the proper offsets to use for an 18" ballot. (Or if there
is some other problem.) I sure appreciate your help!
