Re: [hylafax-users] hylafax sends actual postscript text and not the tiff/f
As per the instructions I am printing to a PS driver...
http://www.purpel3.nl/sambafax/ says:
On your samba client, install a new printer with a postscript driver
(like an apple laserwriter 12/640 PS) to print to \\YOURSERVER\SalsaFax
Which generates a file such as follows:
%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%Creator: HylaFAX TextFmt Class
%%Title:
%%CreationDate: Thu Jun 3 15:50:57 2004
%%For: root
%%Origin: 0 0
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792
%%Pages: (atend)
%%PageOrder: Ascend
%%Orientation: Portrait
%%DocumentNeededResources: font Courier-Bold
%%EndComments
%%BeginProlog
/$printdict 50 dict def $printdict begin
/ISOLatin1Encoding where{pop save true}{false}ifelse
/ISOLatin1Encoding[
...
It then converts that file to a tiff/f and faxes 15 pages of PS so you get:
%!PS-Adobe-3.0
%%Creator: HylaFAX TextFmt Class
%%Title:
%%CreationDate: Thu Jun 3 15:50:57 2004
%%For: root
%%Origin: 0 0
%%BoundingBox: 0 0 612 792
%%Pages: (atend)
%%PageOrder: Ascend
%%Orientation: Portrait
%%DocumentNeededResources: font Courier-Bold
%%EndComments
%%BeginProlog
/$printdict 50 dict def $printdict begin
/ISOLatin1Encoding where{pop save true}{false}ifelse
/ISOLatin1Encoding[
...
Which is not the text I wish... I wish the text that the PS represents.
It should convert (ps2fax) the PS code to the actual document in the
form of a tiff.

Instead it sends the PS file. I am suspecting it has to do with
the file name
in the line below (see trace file):
Jun 02 15:59:25.88: [ 9089]: SEND file "docq/doc16.ps;71"
there is a: "docq/doc16.ps" which is the PS file
and a: "docq/doc16.ps;71" which appears to be the tiff/f file.
I'm confused.
If docq/doc16.ps;71 is the TIFF file and if the logs say that it's
sending docq/doc16.ps;71, then why do you think that it isn't sending
the TIFF file?
Jun 02 16:00:26.89: [ 9089]: SEND recv MCF (message confirmation)
The fact that you get an MCF signal from the remote indicates that the
remote is getting TIFF data. In a non-ECM situation the receiver is
required to actually decode the data it receives in order to determine
if it is acceptable or not.
