Some examples of the stamps I tested:
1. Make sure the stamp is exactly in the middle of the central square:
full scan |
scan in detail |
This is a very good cancel indeed; 150% of the value
the box indicates : 150 |
1. Placing the stamp:
full scan |
Here, the cancel is bigger then the overlay indicator,
so you'll have to find the center of the cancel.
scan in detail |
scale : 150 |
Altough it's very well centred, due to the lightness of the cancel, the value is lower.
So certainly a 'downgrade' to me.
Last example:
1. Here I placed a larger stamp on the A-sheet.
The hight is larger than the width, so we have to adjust the hight when placing the stamp.
If the stamp is wider than its hight, we have to adjust the width of course.

adjusting the stamp to the compass, and the 2nd compass to the stamp |
aww, only 40 |
Definitively an 'upgrade' to me.
Lesson to be learned.
This is a handy tool but it's not a Bible.
Have fun measuring !
