2 PRINTING FROM WINDOWS
Creating an overlay file
You can save up to 20 documents as overlay files using the printer driver. You can print an overlay on the foreground or
background of a document. To do that, you must first create an overlay file.
P.74 “Printing with an overlay file”
y If you save a multi-page document as an overlay file, only the first page of the document will be saved as an
overlay file.
y Both the overlay file and the documents on which you superimpose the overlay image must be created at the same
size and orientation.
y When creating an overlay file using the PS3 printer driver from an application that can create the PS command
directly, the overlay file will not be created properly. In that case, disable the [Use PostScript Passthrough] option in
the [PostScript Settings] dialog box.
