Massachusetts absentee ballot paper

I take my role as an elector seriously. When I live in the US I register as an overseas voter for the UK and vice versa. Yesterday I was amused to receive my absentee ballot paper from Belmont, MA, as a PDF of a 9½" × 19" document, not even fitting on A3. Fortunately the town clerk's office confirm that I need not return a full-size version so long as it remains readable.
