Using Overlays - IBM 6400 Programmer's Reference Manual

Using Overlays

Using Overlays

Overlays are stored constructs (text, graphics, images, and bar codes), often in
complex configurations, with all the instructions needed to print. An overlay
always prints in the type style used when it was stored and can be positioned
anywhere on the page.
Overlays are useful for letterheads and for forms, as shown below in Figure 3.
