Aligning Projected Image To A Projection Screen

To ensure that the projected image shows within the surface of a projection

screen, use the following method:

Move the projector close to the screen, and form a rectangular image that is

smaller than the screen itself.

Check that the bottom edge of the projected image aligns with the bottom

edge of screen frame, and the top edge of the projected image is level with

the screen.

Check that the left and right edges are parallel to the screen.

If you are

unable to align the sides, skip this step and correct this with 4-Corner
