Response to USCIS RFE — is it acceptable if a scanned document cuts off information at the bottom?

I’m preparing a packet of documents to respond to a USCIS RFE and wanted to clarify about the scans. If a small portion at the bottom of a page is slightly cut off, is that critical? I thought the main thing was to show the page is original, not a copy. How should I properly respond to a USCIS RFE step by step — are there specific requirements for the completeness and quality of the scans?

One corner of one document was folded, so I handed it in like that — the two sheets were clipped together and it went through fine. If the text is fully readable, that’s enough; the document’s integrity isn’t compromised, so it’s okay.
