Re: [hylafax-users] hylafax sends actual postscript text and not the tiff/f
I changed the PS drier to the Apple LaserWriter and it worked!.....
typically a phrase like:
"...install a new printer with a postscript driver (like an ...) "
usually does not place any special requirements.
There should probably be a note regarding print drivers that place
"wrappers" around the PS code.
You wouldn't believe the amount of searching I've done the last two days
looking for a solution.
Lee, thanks for your help!

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
Uh, this wasn't created by your printer driver. It was created by
textfmt. What is the file that was created by your printer driver
(what does the top look like)?
I'd guess that you didn't use the Apple LaserWriter 12/640 PS driver
and instead used some HP "postscript" driver that puts a proprietary
wrapper around PS. Textfmt looks at the wrapper, doesn't identify it
as PostScript, and so handles it as text.
You should probably follow the salsafax instructions and use the Apple
LaserWriter 12/640 PS driver.
