GeometryToDrillFile

public static void GeometryToDrillFile(BallotGeometry geometry,
                                       java.lang.String preamble,
                                       java.lang.String pathToDrillsFile,

                                throws java.lang.Exception

Creates two drill files: one for the upper half of the ballot and one for the lower part From the geometry it extracts where the serial number and the letters on the bottom pages are and each one hole for each. If can shift the holes by a given amount (in inches)

Parameters:

geometry - - the geometry of the ballot.

preamble - - the header of the files

pathToDrillsFile - - a folder where the two files are written

xShift - - x shifting applied before writing

yShift - - y shifting applied before writing

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - - no Exception is caugth and no Exception is Explicitly thrown
