[hylafax-users] Submitting large number of faxes requires huge amounts of disk space

["John Wythe @ Work" <jwythe@silksystems.com>]

Hi

 

I am having a problem with disk space usage when submitting a large number of faxes.  Each fax is a single page statement in PDF format. The PDF was created using PDFlib, combining text and a JPEG image.  The resulting DOC???.ps file is aprox. 28MB.  Submitting 1000 faxes would require 28G of disk space.

 

Is there any way to have Hylafax hold off generating the doc???.ps file until the fax is about to be sent?  If this were possible, and one could delete the doc???.ps file after it is sent (using notify.awk) it would only require enough disk space for 4 or 5 instead of 1000.
