overlays

I'm looking at *OVL overlays as a possible solution for printing a smarter
invoice on release 5.1
(a) is this technique outdated and I should be using something else. What
techniques do people use?
(b) if not outdated. I've downloaded the printer driver to write out an
overlay from MS Word and I can get IBM AFP 600 to work. Transferred to
iseries I can create an overlay CRTOVL and use it.  If I  select a named
IBM printer of appropriate type will I get 'better' prints?
(c) I tried a random selection of named printers and it doesn't seem to
create an overlay that CRTOVL recognises. Get error 02. And the contents of
the uploaded overlay 'source' looks different to that for IBM AFP 600. Any
ideas?

Any help much appreciated.
regards
Mike
