Re: [hylafax-users] Document conversion using typerules

[Lee Howard <faxguy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In order to communicate the job via hfaxd with 
non-TIFF/PDF/Postscript/PCL files you'd have to instruct the client to 
submit them anyway as if they were one of those, and then you'd have to 
script-in a conversion process into FaxModify to do that conversion to 
actually get it into that format.

That's about all that I can tell you... it's not something that I've 
actually done before.

Thanks,

Lee
