Hello,
I'm using actually KdePrintFax configirated with sendfax/mgetty-sendfax but I'm
unable to send a fax with this system; what file format is supportad by sendfax?
In the documentation, it is said the input file must be on g3 format, created by pbm2g3
from bitmat one (if I correctly understood) but how to convert openoffice format to
bitmap?
Thank you in advance for any suggestion
cheers

Long ago I used sendfax and also converted the received faxes to be e-mails
(tiff format). I don't recall exactly how I did this. But the trick was to
print to a file in postscript format. A script extracted the faxnumber (grep
faxnumber:) from it and passed it over to sendfax along with a few
conversions (more than one, perhaps ps2pbm | pbm2g3 ?) to convert the ps to
g3 format. I think that the printfax in KDE does just that or something
similar.
(Oh my whatis database apropos isn't working, it just says "nothing
appropriate" )
Best greetings

My experience is that it works with PS format, but doesn't support file
names including spaces.
