If you submit the document for all the numbers, then there is only 2
files - the original and the imaged:

sendfax -n -d xxx -d xxx -d xxx -d xxx /some/path/to/file.pdf

For big tests, look at the -z option to sendfax.

And faxrcvd (etc/FaxDispatch) can throw out the file after it's received
if that's an issue as well.
