00What is the meaning of the first 'pad' ? Can I rewrite it into 'Press one of the suspect's fingers lightly on the stamp pad?'02br

00Question 202br
02br
00For the second sentence 'Roll it from side to side, to cover it with link.', I don't understand why the writer put a comma here. Does it mean that 'Roll it from side to side and roll it to cover it with ink.'???02br
