Just put something like:

    case "${ARCHIVE_FAX}" in 
        "always")
           TIFF2PDF="/usr/local/bin/tiff2pdf"
           ${TIFF2PDF} -o archive/$FILENAME.pdf -pA4 ${FILE};;
         "never")
           ;;
    esac

in your faxrcvd script. Be aware to rename the script to
faxrcvd-whatever and put:

FaxRcvdCmd:             bin/faxrcvd-whatever

in your modem config file, e.g. something like etc/config.cuad4. This
prevents the script from being overwritten upon a HylaFAX update.

On request I can send you my faxrcvd script, but it is quite adapted to
my needs and UNIX FreeBSD-flavour. Although if you are skilled enough
you can re-adapt it, or read and copy from it for your needs.
