Re: [hylafax-users] extra empty page being printed on receiving fax machine

As far as I know, (which may not be much;-), if you send a letter length
fax to an A4 machine, a thermal roll facsimile should print it all on one
page, whereas a plain paper machine will probably carry the overrun onto a
second page.

AFAIK, letter is *shorter* than A4, but slightly wider. From the Ghostscript docs (width x height, in mm):


letter  216 x 279
a4      210 x 297

So, the length fits easily. As for the width, fax machines either scale the page down, or simply discard those 6 mm (on the right, usually).
