Re: [hylafax-users] pdfs...



Weird, seems since I commented the script, it screwed up with the line
breaks


Heres the uncommented version

---------------
#!/bin/bash
nameroot=`echo $1|tail -c17|head -c16`
pdfname=`echo $1| tail -c17 | head -c13`pdf
psname=`echo $1| tail -c17 | head -c13`ps
postscriptname=`echo /var/temp/psoutput/$psname`
fax2ps /var/spool/hylafax/$1 > $postscriptname
lp -d meblab $postscriptname
rm -f $postscriptname
mv /var/spool/hylafax/$1 /home/faxrcvd
tiff2pdf /home/faxrcvd/$nameroot > /home/faxrcvd/$pdfname
rm -f /home/faxrcvd/$nameroot
chmod 644 /home/faxrcvd/$pdfname

Not sure if this is a done and dead topic, but heres what I did.

I rewrote faxrcvd to take the tiff, create a comparably named post
script (which got tossed to a printer), create a PDF of the fax, delete
the post script once its printed, and delete the original tiff once the
other processes have been completed.

If your interested, heres the full faxrcvd file

--------------
#!/bin/bash
nameroot=`echo $1|tail -c17|head -c16`      ## parses file name
pdfname=`echo $1| tail -c17 | head -c13`pdf ## adds .pdf to one name
psname=`echo $1| tail -c17 | head -c13`ps   ## adds .ps to one name
postscriptname=`echo /var/temp/psoutput/$psname` ## includes path
fax2ps /var/spool/hylafax/$1 > $postscriptname  ## converts tiff to ps
lp -d printername $postscriptname  ## prints the ps
rm -f $postscriptname  ## removes the postscript
mv /var/spool/hylafax/$1 /home/faxrcvd  ## moves the original
tiff2pdf /home/faxrcvd/$nameroot > /home/faxrcvd/$pdfname ## converts 2
pdf
rm -f /home/faxrcvd/$nameroot  ## removes original 
chmod 644 /home/faxrcvd/$pdfname  ## sets perms on pdf

I Want to have hylafax receive faxes by default in pdf format.  Is there

anyway to do that?  I know I can setup FaxDispatch to email the files as

pdfs.  But is there any way to have hylafax receive the files by default
in 
pdf format? 

Samir
