Merging data with an overlay

PSF lets you use an application to merge data with an electronic form, or overlay. An overlay contains constant information and can also contain blanks that can be filled in by the application. The print data set the application creates contains the variable data that is printed on the electronic form. PSF can print both the variable data and the form on a single sheet, eliminating the need to print forms before printing the variable data. PSF can also print an overlay on a blank page containing no variable data. Figure 14 shows an electronic form that was used on the sample page. The application program supplied the name Jane A. Doe.
