Good afternoon everyone
I am in the process of creating an overlay using Excel
The overlay is basically just a grid, and I have the placement of the grid
in relation with the print in as perfect positions I could ask for.
What I am attempting to do on the overlay, is to print numbers, but in such
a fashion that the end result from the AS400 is that these numbers are a
MUCH lighter shade than the actual characters from the spool file. In excel
I created these characters with the 25% grey.
However, when I print the end result, these numbers are NOT 25% grey, but
(due to their font size) bigger and bolder than the spool characters

My question is - does any one know of a way that I can achieve my goal of
printing the characters in the overlay with an almost washed out look

Hopefully this makes sense
