Re: Printing and Overlays

[Scott Klement <midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I agree with Charles.

I wanted to add that if you're using Host Print Transform, the AFP 
resources (such as overlays, page segments, etc) are added by the writer 
before the data is sent to the printer.  So they're not in the spooled 
file with HPT, but they're not sent separately like they would be with a 
true AFP printer, they're merged into the spooled file during the 
transform process.
