Thanks. The header has the company logo, title etc. The word document is a sheet that gets filled in by hand. The serial number section goes on a specific top right hand corner because the sheet gets scanned for archiving. The scanner 'looks' for the specific section to automatically assign and save a file name for that document. We currently have a box to where the user has to affix a serialized label. They too have to be careful to affix it within the printed square and perfectly align otherwise the scanner will not 'read' the barcode. Hence trying to automate this will save at least 30min work per employee per job several times per day.

I will give your suggestions a go and post my result or further questions.
