Re: [hylafax-users] Image quality in fax transmission



Hi,
fax-protocol supports only black and white images, no greyscale.
I think the noise you see results from gs dithering your image
to get the correct background-colour.....
convert your images to black and white (2 colors) before sending and 
they will be faxed ok i think
