DonTx Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 I hate printing reports so I can fax them. It's also a waste of paper! Does anyone have any suggestions on fax software so I could fax a PDF document? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Home Pride Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Don, Windows XP comes with a basic fax program. You need to add it via the control panel (Add Windows Components). One of the better stand alone programs is WinFax. Dom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonTx Posted December 19, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Thanks Dom, I never realized I already had a fax program with XP. Okay...I've tried it but I'm on DSL and everytime I try to send a fax it says there is no dial tone or that the line is busy. How do I get around that one?

Chad Fabry Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Either your copmuter or your printer needs to have a modem for phone. They cost about 9 bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scottpat Posted December 19, 2004 Report Share Posted December 19, 2004 Email the PDF. I email 98% of my reports now. Just about everyone has an email address now. If you take photos, you do need to reduce them to keep the file size down. Most of my reports are in the 200kb to 500kb size. The reports that are over 1meg, I can email if they have high speed access with little problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonTx Posted December 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2004 Wow, a phone line plugged into my computer. Who would have thought about that! [:-dunce] [:-paperba Scott, I send out about 95% of our reports in email. However, many of our clients want us to fax the builder, agent or cousin a copy. Since I have a staff in the office, I don't mind. I just hate printing out a report so it can be faxed! Thankss everyone for the suggestions. Now if someone could tell me what a phone line looked like....[?] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
