Jack,

Just a wild speculation, but any chance there could be an authority issue
with the new overlay files?

Do you get any error messages in the job log of the application?

Richard

Sorry. The original sets of signatures continue to work. Two new ones
won't work.

No program changes or anything.

It doesn't print sometime or never since you made the change? Does the old
copy still work?

We put an electronic signature on some Bills of Lading. The entire

This has been working well for several years. We needed to create some
new
signatures, so I followed the steps I always do. Create the jpg, print to
the AFP 300 printer driver (specify medium overlay), put the file in QDLS,
then do the Create OVL



Like this:



CPYFRMPCD FROMFLR(&FLR) TOFILE(QTEMP/WORKF) +

FROMDOC(&FILE) +

TRNTBL(*NONE) TRNFMT(*NOTEXT)



CRTOVL OVL(&LIB/&OVL) FILE(QTEMP/WORKF) MBR(WORKF)





The overlay prints on a test form. BUT I can't get it to print in our
application.



Here is the DDS



A R SIGN OVERLAY(&LIB/&OVLS &POSD &POSA)

A LIB 10A P

A OVLS 8A P

A POSD 5S 3P

A POSA 5S 3P



I've confirmed via debug all of these field values are correct. I don't
mess with overlays much. Has anyone seen anything like this before?



Jack
