The tool comprises at least one alignment portion that is complementary to at least one part of the periphery of said reference part and at least one receiving portion, forming a perimeter complementary to at least one part of the perimeter of the at least one marking device, the receiving portion being configured to receive the at least one part of the perimeter of the at least one marking device in an adjusted manner. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A tool for positioning at least one marking device on a substrate, the at least one marking device presenting a perimeter and the substrate comprising a reference part presenting a periphery, the tool comprising: at least one alignment portion, complementary to at least one part of the periphery of said reference part; and at least one receiving portion, forming an edge complementary to at least one part of the perimeter of the at least one marking device, the at least one receiving portion being configured to receive the at least one part of the perimeter of the at least one marking device making contact in an adjusted manner. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The tool according to claim 1, wherein the alignment portion forms an edge configured to make contact in an adjusted manner against said periphery of said reference part, when the tool is affixed onto the substrate. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The tool according to claim 1, wherein the tool is adhesive and repositionable. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The tool according to claim 1, wherein the at least one receiving portion comprises at least one marker configured to be opposite at least one corresponding marker of the at least one marking device, when the at least one marking device is received in contact in an adjusted manner by the at least one receiving portion. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) A positioning set comprising at least one tool according to claim 1 and at least one marking device. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The positioning set according to claim 5, wherein the at least one tool and the at least one marking device are detachable. ### Claim 7 (depends on 5) A kit comprising a positioning set according to claim 5. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) A method for positioning at least one marking device on a substrate, the marking device presenting a perimeter and the substrate comprising a reference part presenting a periphery, the method comprising: affixing the tool according to claim 1 onto the substrate, such that the at least one alignment portion moulds the at least one part of the periphery of said reference part to which it is complementary; and affixing the at least one marking device onto the substrate with at least one part of the perimeter of the marking device being received in contact in an adjusted manner by the at least one receiving portion. ### Claim 9 (depends on 8) The method according to claim 8, wherein affixing the tool onto the substrate comprises putting into contact, in an adjusted manner, the at least one alignment portion against said periphery of said reference part. ### Claim 10 (depends on 8) The method according to claim 8, wherein the at least one receiving portion comprises at least one marker configured to be opposite a corresponding marker of the at least one marking device, when the at least one marking device is housed in contact in an adjusted manner against the receiving portion, wherein affixing the at least one marking device onto the substrate comprises affixing the at least one marking device (5) onto the substrate such that each marker of the at least one receiving portion is opposite each corresponding marker of the at least one marking device.
