I never try this, but I read from some article (i've forgotten where) that problem is from your ink printer...and the article advised to use epson ink..

            Well, line up is not a problem. it's the transparent getting deformed when heated.

What I've been doing is including a "target" in my prints (four 25 mil



squares in a square, with a 1 mil gap - that translates to a 1 mil ink



crosshair when I print negatives).  I print this on all photomasks and



one on plain paper.  The plain paper one I use to pre-drill 16 mil



holes at each crosshair.  Then, when exposing, I can line up the holes



with the crosshairs pretty accurately, and double-check through the



glass overlay.
