Some of the forms I ordered didn't have enough space for all of the information, but were useful as a guide for creating what I needed. Now I'll be trying the e-recording to see how that goes.
Thank you!

The program fields should allow the customer to change font size and allow additional space for information to be place on the Deed.
Not Bad, still needs improvement.
Thank you for your feedback Maurice. Unfortunately we do not make the requirements for things like font size and margins, we only make the documents to be compliant with them.
