Re: [hylafax-users] R: PDF Attachment Corruption

[Bezaleel Support <support@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok,

So I checked and I have the following installed:

Imagemagick (although I am not using webmin)
sharutils
metamail


Did not have:
mgetty (now installed)
gcc-c++ (now installed)
gs (ghostscript - now installed)
libtiff-devel (now installed)

I also took Giuseppe's advice. I went to Debian's website and downloaded 
version 4.3.1-7 and performed an upgrade via dpkg.

I would have tried to have installed 4.4.2, but Ubuntu did not have the 
necessary dependencies for it to install correctly.

Now everything seems to be working fine. I can receive faxes still and 
the PDF's appear in my email perfectly.

Thanks to all,
Kevin L.
