"After the test is over , at the perforation point , tear the OMR answer sheet , hand over the original OMR answer sheet to the invigilator and retain the carbonless copy for your record."



I can not understand what the meaning of perforation is here. As far as I know perforation means hole.



Can anyone please help me to understand the meaning of the whole sentence?

          Here is the definition of PERFORATION from Merriam-Webster's Dictionary:
          'one of the series of holes (as between rows of postage stamps) in a sheet that serve as an aid in separation'.
          This is the meaning of the word used in the context.
          The meaning of the sentence is:
          "After finishing the test, tear off the answer sheet at the point of the holes, hand over the original answer sheet to the examiner assistant and keep the copy for your record.

                    What visual should I use to simply compare current year value vs last year in Power BI desktop

                    Image
                    0 I have column SubToBind that shows current year ratio and column PY SubToBind which shows previous year ratio. How can I simply create a card that would be displaying them both in a nice way? Something like that: I cannot achieve that with regular card, I also tried Card with States by OKViz but also unable to see both values. In KPI visual - I dont like the word "Goal", it will confuse end users. Are there any cards or other visuals that would do the job?
