Re: [hylafax-users] Distorted faxes being received by Hylafax

[Lee Howard <faxguy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As I said already, HylaFAX does not place anything at the top of 
received faxes.  Nor does it put anything anywhere on the received 
faxes.  In fact, if using ECM, the faxes are as-is, virtually identical 
to the way the sender sent it.  If not using ECM then there is a 
possibility of some line sizing fixes, which would account for, at 
most, some horizontal smearing and up to 5 lines of vertical corruption.

"Squishing" isn't anything that would normally be an effect of anything 
HylaFAX does to received faxes.  Normally "squished" faxes (on the 
receiving end) are due to a TIFF viewer that doesn't like the 
compression type.
