So you are saying that if I have a tiff image that is cut-off, say half-way 
down, then that is most probably the result of a bad fax transmission? 
Wouldn't that be detected by Hylafax as a bad fax page and either result in 
the other side resending the page or Hylafax dropping that page? What is 
the expected behavior of Hylafax in this type of situation?
