AFP > Images and overlays

Images and overlays
Image and overlay output from PageOUT can be handled by the AFP driver using the following modes:
See Modes for managing AFP resources for more information about the above driver options.
Auto generated image and overlay names
The AFP driver auto generates resource names for images and overlays as PrefixName, where Prefix is S1 for images and O1 for overlays, and Name is the name of the image/overlay used in PageOUT. For example:
S1LOGO 
O1SLIP
The resource name, including prefix, can be up to eight characters long. This means that if the original image/overlay contains more than six characters, the name is truncated. For example, an image called logoSWE in PageOUT generates the image resource name S1LOGOSW.
Auto generated resource names are normally used when running the AFP driver in Embed and Merge mode for image and overlay resources.
Specified image and overlay names
When using external image and overlay resources (Include and Reference mode), you must make sure the resource names in the AFP data stream file are the same as the names of the corresponding external resources. This means you can only use auto generated resource names if you first export the resources, and then use the exported resources as external resources.
If you use other resources (e.g. 3rd party generated image and overlay resources) as external resources, you must map the original images and overlays used in PageOUT to the corresponding external resources. See Mapping images, overlays and color profiles for more information.
