It relies on the layout that the document had when the project was created. The LaTeX class writes out all the information (look at the questionnaire.sdaps file) which is parsed by SDAPS and stored internally. So it is impossible to change the layout/questionnaire after the setup step. > Let's suppose I have an existing survey that I would like to read > optically.

It also requires the barcodes and corner marks to be exactly as it expects them to be. You really need to do everything with the utilities provided by SDAPS, using a print/scan of another (similar) document together with SDAPS is *not* possible. Hope this answers your question, Benjamin
