Then you need to select the Print Grid button as many times as necessary so the form is covered with the X's and 0's the Grid prints.
The next step is to use a Marker to highlight the grid items you will be replacing with text and variables from the program.

Follow the Grid to count lines and characters as you instruct line by line the completion of the document using the buttons below.
