Re: [hylafax-users] Other graphic formats for received faxes - resend w no attachment (sorry!)



First off, sorry to everyone on the list for accidentally digitally signing
my last message and if this caused some problems trying to open my message.

Uhhh,
Is there any reason why you don't print directly from the HylaFax server
rather than printing out the Emailed file attachment?  Unless this is a
remote fax server, it would be a much easier to do this than use some
other attachment format.

Or why not change the unattended PC with no monitor to Linux?  By the
sounds of it, this is a printer server, and Samba/Linux  Server will let
you make a Windows compatible server without any bizarre prompting before
letting things print.  (Having a headless (no monitor) machine EVER give a
prompt before printing just sounds wrong....)

Good luck.

Subject: [hylafax-users] Other graphic formats for received faxes


Can Hylafax produce something other than a TIFF, PS or PDF file to send as
an email attachment? Maybe a JPG or BMP file, perhaps, would be useful. I
couldn't see anything in the notes about this - they specifically refer to
these three types.

Background: I am emailing the incoming fax to another system, and for
maximum control (users not printing long faxes to expensive inkjet printers,
for example) I'd like to have my software print the fax. Only problem is I
am
printing from a THEOS server to a Windows PC, and the Windows PC (an
unattended PC with no monitor) will pop up a confirmation window when I try
to print the file. If I could print JPG or BMP these are handled a different
way by the printing software and would not give this problem.

Thanks in advance.
Mike
