The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Most of our overlays are full-page overlays. Any job using them does include an OVRPRTF command to position things correctly-- we have control files that build the OVRPRTF on-the-fly, so we don't have to keep poking at the CL.

Subject: RE: fun with printer overlays - how to change top margin by tiny increments (.01 inches)
IIRC, what you are stating below is accurate for a default OVRPRTF FRONTMGN.
But, once the OVRPRTF FRONTMGN(*DEVD) is used, then the overlay appears to uncouple from the text for that run only.
The overlay can be controlled with the ovrprtf FRONTOVL(overlayName .2 .1) .
Any idea how to control the text margin? As soon as I use OVRPRTF FRONTMGN(*DEVD), it appears I have lost control of the text margin.
I am using a program-described printer file.
Maybe if I make it an externally described printer file, then I can control the text margin again??
Is it possible to control the text margin in a program-described printer file?
