      it’s pretty good for this specific purpose. it has an open source inkscape plugin written in python for it, so I don’t need to use proprietary software. however, it also needs printed alignment marks, and it can only read them off a white or red background; I’ve tried printing on green paper and it was not happy with it. I can work around it by gluing a black and white alignment border around the page, but that cuts down on the usable area slightly.

      overall, good for the $50 I paid for it lol
