Overlay

Overlay Printing allows to overlay the document created in any Windows application onto a preselected form file.

For example, if there is a form file containing a company name, logo, or address, it will be printed in the same position on each page of the document altogether with the print data created in an application.

You can easily create perfectly formatted documents with the same appearance from any Windows application.

Creating an Overlay Form File

Before using Overlay Printing, you need to create an overlay form file in an application. To create a form file you can use both applications from Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP package and commercially available software.

• Windows Metafile

Windows metafile format is used in most commercially available draw applications. Create the form data and save it in the metafile format.

• Windows BMP

You can easily create a form file in this format using software included in the Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP package, such as Paint. Windows NT 4.0/2000/XP desktop wallpapers are also created in this format. There is also a number of commercialy available software, e.g. Corel PhotoPaint, that use this format. Create the form data using such software and save it as a BMP file.
