Knowing this, the best practice when creating fields is that they have, at the very least, a 7mm
margin on each size of the actual area you want to capture from. For example, an effective
30mm wide pattern will actually be 44mm wide using these margins. The margin should be for
both the vertical size and the horizontal size.
Distance between patterns
In implementations where a lot of patterns need to be close together (a questionnaire, multiple
choice question, checkmarks, etc) it is important to understand the risk of then pen writing
across multiple fields on the paper. People using the pen may, for example, make a very broad
checkmark which would bleed over to the next field. This can cause PlanetPress Capture to
detect the ink as being present, and thus trigger whatever that field does.
