Figure 2. Letter Preparation Using AFP Utilities
| The AFP Utilities provide flexible printing. For example, with AFP Utilities you can:
Highlight a list of items by printing the list in a different type style from the
remainder of the text.
Print your letterhead in one font and your text in another font.
You can electronically store your letterhead so it always prints in the same style.
This printing concept is described in “Using Overlays.”
Using Overlays
Overlays are stored constructs of text, boxes, lines, graphics, images, and bar
codes with all the instructions needed to print. They are often in complex
configurations. An overlay is always printed in the same format as it was stored in
and can be positioned anywhere on the page.
Overlays are useful for letterheads and forms as shown in the following figure.
