2. Form Type Table
An alternative to stating the Form Type directly in 1= Merge with Overlay (refer to page 138)
is to create a table which has all available form types listed.
Apart from having the forms listed in a well-arranged manner, the form types table gives the
possibility of defining 3 copies with 3 different overlays for each page in the input spool entry.
Note that an AFC definition must be defined which lets the selection from the Forms type
table take effect.
W hen selecting the menu point 2. Form Type Table from the Auto Forms Control
administration menu the following screen will appear:
