Re: [hylafax-users] Invalid compression type with kodak and wang imaging

Armands,
This is a cut&paste from various past responses to this problem. For group3,
use 1D files with wang/kodak OR convert files to group4, 2d for wang/kodak.

Solution #1 for g3 1D files:

>g4 is 2D.  It is g3 2d that Wang/Eastman/Kodak Imaging can't handle.

Also, FWIW, I don't have *any* 'RecvDataFormat:' command specified in my
config.ttyS0 file and wang/kodak have not yet complained ever about any
images. Try taking it out and see if the problem remains.

Subject: [hylafax-users] Invalid compression type with kodak and wang
imaging


Hello Hylafax gurus!

I recently have completed installation of HylaFax server (hylafax-
4.1beta1-1rh6.i386.rpm) on my linux 6.1 box. Server is configured to 
send incoming faxes to windows box as e-mail with .tif attachment. 
Everything works fine except two things:

1) about 50% of faxes can't be viewed with kodak and wang imaging on 
win boxes - kodak imaging says: "Invalid compression type",
wang: "The compression format in the specified file name is invalid 
or not supported". At the same time IrfanView shows these files 
without the problem.

I have these lines in my corresponding config.ttySX file:
Class2CQQueryCmd:	"!(0),(0)"
RecvDataFormat:		"2-D MMR"

IrfanView's info claims they both are group 3 files - those which can 
be viewed and those which can't be viewed with kodak/wang imaging.
Modem is ZyXel Omni 0288S.
Maybe someone knows what's wrong?

2) these  (but this is another story) "No response to EOP repeated 3 
times"...
