Re: [hylafax-users] extra empty page being printed on receiving fax machine



I believe the default page size should be letter, in /etc/hylafax/pagesizes it shows A4
 
default                 A4       9920   14030    9240    13200  472     345
when I comment out this and put:
 
default                 NA-LET  10200   13200    9240    12400  472     345
 
sendfax errors with:
 
[root@fax root]# sendfax -n -D -d 1234567 test.txt
/etc/hylafax/pagesizes: line 75: Unexpected end of line after "page size abbreviation".
Unknown page size default.
Usage: /usr/sbin/textfmt [-1] [-2] [-B] [-c] [-D] [-f fontname] [-F fontdir(s)] [-m N] [-o #] [-p #] [-r] [-U] [-Ml=#,r=#,t=#,b=#] [-V #] files... >out.ps
Default options: -f Courier -1 -p 11bp -o 0
Error converting data; command was "/usr/sbin/textfmt -B -f Courier-Bold       -Ml=0.4in -p 11 -s default >/tmp//sndfax83Mvwj <test.txt"
Can you tell me what I am doing wrong please?

What is the default page length in your country? What is the default pagesize
in (/path/to/hylafax/libs/pagesizes)?
