    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.
    Overlay Form File Formats
    For overlay forms you can use files in the following formats.
    • Windows Metafile
    • Windows BMP
    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 95/98/Me 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 
    95/98/Me package, such as Paint. Windows 95/98/Me 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.
