Please ignore my last post. Got it figured out. My co-worker reminded me
of the piece where I need to change the printer properties when I'm
printing to a file to go to an overlay. Wasn't doing that. Thanks again
folks!

This discussion has made me appreciate the technique we use for forms and
reports, which is to generate HTML output, then transform that to PDF. The
layout automatically adapts to printer settings such as portrait,
landscape, or paper size. No confusion. Trim that wasted time.
