Abstract
This document discloses a method and system for assessing integrity of a stack of ballots or other documents. A processor receives a first set of electronic source document files, each of which includes content of a corresponding source document. The processor generates a verification image, segments the verification image into slices, and causes a print device to print verification document sheets. Each verification document sheet includes data from one of the source electronic document files and, on an edge of the sheet, a unique one of the slices of the verification image. The verification document sheets are stacked so that the slices appear on a side of the stack and, when all of the verification document sheets have been placed onto the stack, the slices collectively form the verification image.
