# OVERLAY A FIXED FORM ON THE PRINT DATA(OVERLAYS)

## Overview

This function overlays data on a fixed form you have prepared.
By creating table rulings or a decorative frame in an application different from that of the text file and registering the data as an overlay file, an attractive print result can be easily obtained without the need for complex manipulations.
This function is available in a Windows environment.
