Yes, you can analyze printed forms and templates by overlaying a numbered grid on the input image. The tool renders grid lines and labels in the top and left margins without overlapping the document content, allowing you to precisely determine column boundaries and proportions.

To generate a grid overlay, run the CLI tool with a path to your input image and use the -o option to specify the output file. The script automatically calculates the required rows and columns based on your specified divisions and the original image size.

The grid overlay applies numbered labels in the top and left margins of the image to prevent overlapping your document content. This ensures the original layout remains fully visible while you measure column proportions and boundaries accurately.

When using Python and Pillow for grid overlay analysis, limitations include the inability to automatically extract coordinate data; it solely produces a visual output image. You must manually read the numbered grid lines to determine column widths for your MXL or document layout.
