list. The Edit Overlay window appears.

4. In the Edit Overlay window, click Create.

File name box. Select the destination path, if necessary. (The

default is C:\Formover.)

6. Click Save. The name appears on the Overlay List.

7. Click OK or Print until you exit the Print window.

drive.

The overlay document size must match same as the document

you print. Do not create an overlay with a watermark.

Using an overlay

After an overlay has been created, it is ready to be printed with your

document. To print an overlay on your document:

source, you can also load the file when you access the Open

window.

After you select the file, click Open. The file appears in the Overlay

List box and is available for printing. Select the overlay from the

Overlay List box.

to print an overlay over your document.

If this box is not checked and an overlay has been selected, the

overlay automatically prints with your document.
