WinXP Fax question

May 19th, 2012 - 04:22 pm ET by Henry | Report spam
I have WinXP Pro SP3 with the FAX program that comes with it. I can FAX just
fine, but only one page at a time. I go to Print/FAX and follow the Wizard.

Does anyone know how to FAX more than the one page all in the same FAX? I'd
at times like to FAX multiple pages but find I have to do them one at a time
and label them on the cover sheetPage1, Page2, etc.

Is there a way to get the FAX program to ask for more pages than just the one?

Thanks

Henry

I used to use WinFAX to do exactly what you want, IIRC.

If you don't get the XP Fax to do what you want, pick a search engine or
4 and search on fax software. Both commercial and free software is
available.

I'd then bring the individual JPG scans into FastStone Image Viewer (a
really good image manipulator). There, I'd click on Create, then Multi-Page
File Builder. I'd put all the pages I wanted into a single file and save it
as either TIFF or PDF (I could also save the file as "animated GIF").

Now that I know I can do multiple page documents right in the scanner, I
should be able to save the extra steps. I assume that once the multi-page
scans are in a single file, the whole file will be faxed properly. I hope
your scanner works this way too.

That assumes that the fax software knows about multipage TIFFs, PDFs, or
whatever; I imagine there is some fax software around that doesn't. Of
course, if the fax software is actually part of the scanner "driver"
that _can_ create multipage images, then one would hope it does.
