Re: flexfax: Putting faxcover on the same page

[Yuri Litvin <ylitvin@illumecandles.com>]

Hey there

I've had the same problem few months ago. When i asked WHFC to use cover
page, it was printing cover page that i've created in the latest TGIF (
4.1.20), then blank page and then the document.
Solution was pretty simple. I've downloaded previous version of TGIF
(3.0p16-5) and created the cover page in there from scratch. It  works like a
charm now :-). The version 3 of TGIF was a lot worse then ver 4. , but i was
still able to make a pretty cover page :-) Then u just print it as a ps and
using  make_faxcover script convert that ps file to the actual cover page
that u're gonna use.

If u can't find ver3 of TGIF- lemme know, i'll send u rpm that i've used.

Good luck!!!
