Hello Jack,

I simply shine a fashlight beam across the page onto the spot I'm
reading. The total nose area is larger than the portion which actually
reads the color values. I was concerned, as you are, about reading
more than the square and including some of the white borders. Unless
you straddle two squares, the instrument is very accurate.

Your friend in Photography,

Johnny
