Re: [hylafax-users] pdf output only

[PanicNot@xxxxxxx]

setup your ./etc/FaxDispatch to run tiff2pdf

something like this:

$cat etc/FaxDispatch

workfax FNAME=`basename $FILE`

 

In my case the shell workfax calls a program written in a 4GL that is fed the file name as an argument and then does a bunch of things.

 

I use tiff2pdf to convert the tiff to a pdf, then I remove the tiff and move the pdf to a new folder.

 

/u/faxes/bin/tiff2pdf -o fax123.pdf fax123.tif

Howdy fax people :)

I am looking for the simplest way to get my hylafax server to just
answer, get a fax, and drop them in the recvq in PDF format instead of
TIF.  Any ideas on this?  I don't want to email them, print them out
automatically... I just want them to auto-receive into PDF.

Hylafax is up and running, works like a champ in like 2 minutes from
download to receiving his first fax.  Fantastic software but this PDF
thing troubles me.

Meow?  Thanks for your time and effort!
