Please keep in mind when completing OmniForms that "the text of all papers must be legible and, other than prompts and instructions, must be in a standard typeface of 10 to 12-point characters and have margins" [22NYCRR Section 207.4]. The typeface becomes smaller as more information is inserted therefore additional pages MUST be attached when available space is insufficient, i.e. typeface becomes too small to be legible.
