OVERLAYS
This is the final step before the new overlays are ready for use.
1. Open the Printers (called “Printers and Faxes” in Windows XP) window via the Start
menu or the Windows Control Panel.
2. Right-click on the Relevant PostScript printer icon and choose Printing
Preferences from the pop-up menu.
3. On the Job Options tab, click the Overlay button.
4. In the Overlay window, Click the Define Overlays
button (1).
5. In the Define Overlays window, enter the name (a) and
ID (b) of the required overlay, and define which
page(s) (c) of your documents will use this overlay. Then
click the Add button (3) to add this overlay to the list of
defined overlays. Repeat for any other related overlays.
When done, click the Close button (4) to close the
window.
The example illustrated shows two overlays defined, one for
a cover page and one for continuation pages.
Remember that names and IDs of overlay files must be entered exactly as they
appeared in the Storage Device Manager project window. Remember also that names
are case sensitive.
If you forgot to note the overlay name or ID when you created them, you can find
them using Storage Device Manager to view the project file, or the printer’s
Information Menu to print a file list and identify them from there.
