Hello Wolfgang,

I had the same problem and was not able to resolve this. So I finally
replaced my hardware with an Eicon (now Dialogic) Diva Server card that
does not need capi4hylafax. This has the additional advantage that I can
use dynamic configuration that does not work with c4h.


To test this I did the following:
- - Convert a very simple PostScript document with the same gs commands as
HylaFAX does it. (find command in syslog)
- - Check the TIFF file with a viewer -> looks OK
- - Run c2faxsend manually in TIFF mode with the generated TIFF file. ->
no error in logs
- - Check the received file from the receiving side -> only first page
correct
- - Split the multipage tiff into single page files.
- - Check the files with a viewer -> looks OK
- - Run c2faxsend with multiple single page TIFF files. -> no error in logs
- - Check the received file from the receiving side -> only first page
correct

Maybe the viewer centers the short page?

This reduced speed is probably because the card can send with 14400 and
receive with 9600 only.
