Re: Overlay, HPT question

Excactly.

I explained my trials in a previous mail.  I used host print
transform API to create a PCL file in the IFS.  Then I send
that PCL file to my PC to try different conversion tools
(because they don't exist on the AS/400, yet, as far as I
know... and if they do they're pieces of companies software
with whom I directly compete).

I'm 99% there.  If I could just find why this weird thing is
taking place, I could get rolling again.  :)
