2\) Saral uses pre-defined template Layouts for scanning. Such templates should be available with user. User can find the supported sample mark-sheet/assessment template layouts attached below. User is advised to take print outs of the same. Avoid using photocopies as unclear photocopies are prone to error while scanning.
