Specifies whether to generate the Overview page/section (an equivalent of the overview-summary.html file generated by the Standard Doclet).

It is the front page of Java API documentation and provides a list of all packages with a summary for each. This page can also contain an overall description of the set of packages.

In the case of framed HTML documentation (generated by FramedDoc.tpl), the Overview page is always generated and, therefore, this parameter cannot be unselected.

In the case of single file (RTF) documentation (generated by PlainDoc.tpl), the Overview section may also include a summary of all documented classes. This is controlled by "Generate | Overview | All Classes Summary" parameter.
