[hylafax-users] "What we have here is a Word document"

[Erik Enge <eenge@prium.net>]

In hfaxd/FileSystem.c++, I find:

            else if (cc > 2 && b.buf[0] == '%' && b.buf[1] == 'P') {
                logError("What we have here is a PDF file");
                op = FaxRequest::send_pdf;
            }
            else if (cc > (ssize_t)sizeof (b.h) && isTIFF(b.h))
                op = FaxRequest::send_tiff;
            else
                op = FaxRequest::send_data;

What I want is to be able to submit Microsoft Word documents through
`sendfax` and have HylaFAX go "Oh, Word, I know how to convert this to a
PDF" and then do a ::send_pdf.  Is there any way to do this without
doing an C++ programming?  I can see us adding "conversion filters" like
this for other formats too and having not to recompile every time would
be very convenient.

Erik.
