Re: Printing and Overlays

I agree with Charles.

I wanted to add that if you're using Host Print Transform, the AFP resources (such as overlays, page segments, etc) are added by the writer before the data is sent to the printer. So they're not in the spooled file with HPT, but they're not sent separately like they would be with a true AFP printer, they're merged into the spooled file during the transform process.

Short answer...no.

AFP resources are downloaded separately as required. This allows the
printer to cache them, instead of redownloading them for each spool
file that uses them.
