Re: Printing w/Overlay



Is there a better way to position the text than, SpaceA or SpaceB?

Is it possible to define an absolute position or offset, to print each line
of text?  And if so, is there a link for this info?


Look at the POSITION DDS keyword.  Devtype needs to be *AFPDS

Here's an example of a field called PRTITLE that I wanted to print in a particular position on the page:

      A            PRTITLE       21A         FONT(428 (*POINTSIZE 24))
      A                                      POSITION(4.625 2.10)

Good luck
