RE: convert jpg to AS400 overlay (ovl)

Make change to the word doc
Print it to the AFP300 printer (make sure it is output as overlay)
Make sure the overlay ends with .prn
Move the file to the IFS QDLS/Overlay (if OVERLAY is not there, create it)
CRTPF FILE(WORKOVL) RCDLEN(32766) MAXMBRS(*NOMAX)
Note:  don't forget maxmbrs, a member is created for every overlay.
Run CRTOVL in OVLLIB.:
 PGM        PARM(&OVLNAME)                                  
                                                            
 DCL        VAR(&OVLNAME) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(10)               
 DCL        VAR(&OVLPRN) TYPE(*CHAR) LEN(14)                
                                                            
                                                            
 CHGVAR     VAR(&OVLPRN) VALUE(&OVLNAME *TCAT '.PRN')       
                                                            
                                                            
 CPYFRMPCD  FROMFLR(OVERLAY) TOFILE(WORKovl) +       
              FROMDOC(&OVLPRN) TOMBR(&OVLNAME) +            
              TRNTBL(*NONE) TRNFMT(*NOTEXT)                 
                                                            
 CRTOVL     OVL(&OVLNAME) FILE(WORKovl)    
                                                            
 ENDPGM

I could be wrong, but if I'm remembering correctly, I just opened the image
in Paint or Photoshop, printed the image to file as an overlay.

Insert the jpg image into a word doc.  Then turn the word doc into an
overlay.

I know this is not a true RPG question, but hope someone can help me.
I have a .jpg file I need to convert to an *ovl, to be in used in an DDS
program on our AS400.
The .jpg file is on our shared drive.
I would appreciate it if anyone could help me with this.
Willie..
