It's been six months since I worked on trying this and I did get it to
almost work. Called IBM support and they said if you're going to do
color do not do overlays use page segments instead. I was having trouble
printing variable data on the same line as a color logo using color in
the overlay. Doing the logo in blank/white worked fine but using color
didn't. I didn't want to get that complex just to do color and the user
office I was working with really didn't want color so I dropped it.

Subject: get color overlay to work?

From the archives, there was discussion of getting color overlays to 
work on the iSeries, with no thread announcing success. Need to print a 
simple invoice overlay, with color logos. It would be great if no
additional
products needed, other than a pc product like Word or Photoshop. Has any
been able to do this? The price of various forms products (over 10k) is
killing 
this project for a company with only 1 pre-printed form.
