Re: [hylafax-users] route incoming faxes



This has been talked about.  What you want is OCR capability, so you can 
convert a graphical image (a fax) to text.

I don't know the state of the art in linux, but OCR on faxes has almost 
always resulted in utter garbage for me.  I would not rely on it for 
routing faxes.
