Re: [hylafax-users] Fax takes long time to send

["Nicolas Ross" <rossnick-lists@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I won't go to hylafax+ or increase again my version number, I fear that more 
changes to the email reports could occure. When I upraded to 4.3 earlier 
this week, the format of email report changed a little bit and it disrupted 
many of my automated processing scripts.

As for my problem, you made me realise something. While looking in my log at 
when we started seeing increased faxing time, it's almost to the minute the 
time we switch our pdf generating engine.

Visualy, the pdf is almost the same, but converted to postscript and then to 
tiff via ps2fax, we clearly see where the problem is.

In this image, you can see on the left the old engine, and on the right the 
new one...

I'll then see how to play with ghostscript options to remove this "noise", 
that is surely causing the problem...
