This worksheet describes how to create a questionnaire in booklet format and then scan the returned questionnaires.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Background<\/h3>\n

Snap questionnaires have a Print as booklet <\/strong>setting which lays out the questionnaire as a booklet. When using this setting, do not also set the printer to publish the questionnaire as a booklet, as that would cause the pages to be doubled again.<\/p>\n

If you publish a Snap booklet questionnaire, and then scan in the responses, Snap expects the pages to be in the same order as the booklet you published from Snap.<\/p>\n

If you publish a questionnaire in normal format, and then send the pages to an external print house to be converted into a booklet, Snap will not automatically recognise the questions when you scan them in, as the questionnaire size and page order has changed. You can change the scanning settings to help Snap recognise the questions, but it is not as reliable a method as creating a booklet questionnaire in Snap.<\/p>\n

This worksheet assumes that you have worked your way through the scanning tutorial available in the online help and via the web at\u00a0https:\/\/www.snapsurveys.com\/help\/#25897<\/a>.<\/p>\n
