I am currently using ImageMagick to do save inbound faxes as PDF's.
http://www.imagemagick.org/script/index.php
The command line:
convert fax000123.tif fax000123.pdf
It works well with faxes up to about 20 pages, after that it gets very slow
and/or crashes the server.
I am working on a solution to the limited number of pages using fop, this
seems to be much more efficient. Here is a sketch of my idea, more work needs to
be done.
more great tools to install if you're working with PDF's:

I am new to Hylafax
and installed my first fax server just a few days
ago.
I’m using Fedora Core
5, HylaFax 4.2.5, MultiTech ISI Fax 4-modem, ttyS0, ttyS1, ttyS2, ttyS3.
All are working fine receiving faxes and the email with .pdf attachment works
too.
The only thing I
would like to do is have HylaFax receive the faxes as PDF files instead of
TIFF files. I looked through the archives and could not find a good solution.
The idea is to have people hit the webserver on the Fax Server and be able to
view the PDF files instead of TIFF.
Thanks,
