- Hi --
- Can anyone recommend fax software that runs under Xenix? Should be fairly
- interactive -- eventual users are currently used to Macs!
-
- I quote my own notes:
-
- Software should give the following general capabilities:
-
- 1) Send faxes and upload large (DTP; ca. 200k) files in
- background while other processes continue in foreground;
-
- 2) Incorporate logo graphics (TIFF or EPS= Encapsulated
- PostScript or possibly PICT) files and text files (Word or ASCII
- format) into the same fax;
-
- 3) Send same fax to multiple numbers;
-
- 4) The capability to receive faxes to disk image files is not
- required. If provided, it should be possible to disable it.
-
- It would obviously be ideal if the software could be configured
- to appear as a printer driver, to avoid the need for less-
- computer-philic users to create and handle ASCII files.

- I have no opinions unless specifically paid so to do.
