How to create a recipe overlay

[khimani_mohiki]

Version: Windchill 12.1

Use Case: creating recipe overlays so that different 3dpdf templates can be used when publishing CATIA product and parts

Description:

I have read the help documents on recipe overlays and understand the mechanism to invoke them in the publishing rules, but theres no instructions on how to create an overlay, is it just a recipe file with only additional or changes recipe options you want that then gets appended to the original recipe, or does it replace the original recipe and therefore should contain all the options in the original recipe?
