Using Page Overlay
An overlay is text and/or images stored in the computer HDD
as a special file format that can be printed on any document.
Overlays are often used to take the place of preprinted forms
and letterhead paper. Rather than using preprinted letterhead,
you can create an overlay containing the exact same
information that is currently on your letterhead. To print a
letter with your company’s letterhead, you do not need to load
preprinted letterhead paper in the printer. You need only tell
the printer to print the letterhead overlay on your document. What is an Overlay?
