well, it depends...

what kind of data is the spool file?

If you can do a cpysplf of the data into a physical file...you can maybe redeam yourself..

CRTPF lib/name  recl(n+1 - where n is the record length of the spool file.
cpysplf  name/job/num splfnam numbr TO(lib/name) splctl(*fcfc)

Then do an OVRPRTF with your overlay and use splctl(*fcfc)
cpyf from the lib/name above to that printer file and see if you got lucky... Haven't done this in a while, but last I checked it should work.

I believe that once that spool file is generated,  it can't be
changed. The overlay is brought in at creation time.
