[hylafax-users] Resizing tiff images for faxing

[Matt <math@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

 Sorry for the length of this post chaps, but does anyone have any
suggestions on how to convert a multipage tiff to a faxable size without
ghostscript throwing a wobbler with the following error?

Error: /invalidfileaccess in --.outputpage--


 This is the first two page doc. Tried tiff2ps | ghostscript, but get the
above error.

 This is the second two page doc. Same errors as above.

 These are scanned in images, 200 and 300 dpi respectively, but I can't
find a way to resize to standard A4 fax size.

 Any suggestions would be most welcome. BTW, whether I compress and
concatenate the tiff's as none, g3 or g4 with tiffcp, it makes no
difference to the result. Single page output also does the same.

 Hylafax also throws an error due to ghostscript if they are sent
directly.

Cheers,

Matt
