Quick Link II Fax  (250-3027B)     SNDFAX - DOS        Faxback Doc. # 3239

SNDFAX provides you with a method of sending fax transmission from the DOS
prompt.

The command line method of sending a fax requires that the file be
converted prior to executing the SNDFAX DOS command.  This method will
send the fax in the background using the following command:

SNDFAX /F:<FileName>  /FN:FaxNumber>  /GP:<Group>

Where FileName is from one to ten.QFX file names.  The '/FN' telephone #
is the fax number to which the fax will be sent or you can use the '/GP'
to fax to a group ID defined on the Fax Phone List.  The 'time' parameter
is optional.  When specified, it allows you to schedule a fax
transmission.  If the '/TM' parameter is not included the fax is sent
'Now'.  The '/TM' parameter has the format of HH:MMx, where x is A for AM
or P for PM.

This method of sending a fax loads the RECFAX program background program
which requires approximately 90K of main memory.  RECFAX performs all
background operations.

To remove all scheduled background fax transmissions, issue the following
DOS command:

SNDFAX /OUT

This command will cancel all scheduled fax transmissions.  To remove the
RECFAX background program from memory in addition to removing all
scheduled transmissions, enter SNDFAX / A.  Other commands include:

    /CPInclude a cover page when a fax is sent

    /IDLE Load SNDFAX without sending a fax

    /RSCH Remove all scheduled faxes

Export

The Export function allows you to export a .QFX or .REC file to a PCX or
TIFF format from the DOS Command line.

EXPORT <source file> [/P or /T] /I /Q# /Rx-y /S

where source file is the name of the file to be exported.  The 'P' option
specifies a PCX export and '/T' specifies TIFF.  If the 'I' option is
specified, the fax will be exported with inverse colors, white on black
rather than black on white.  The optional '/Q' parameter specifies to
which resolution you wish to export.  '/Q1' means export to 100dpi (dots
per inch), and 'Q2' means export to 200dpi.  The default is '/Q1' for
normal resolution documents and '/ Q2' for high resolution documents.
This option may be useful to force a particular resolution if the
application you are using requires it.  The '/R' parameter is optional and
allows you to specify the page range to export within a document.  For
example, /R2-3 would instruct EXPORT to export pages 2 and 3.  If you do
not specify a range of pages, all pages will be exported.  The'/S'
parameter is also optional and will suppress all error messages.

ViewFax

The ViewFax function allows you to view a .QFX or .REC file from the DOS
Command line.  This option provides all the interactive functionality of
viewing a send or receive fax document from within the Quick Link II
environment.  The form of the command is as follows:

VIEWFAX <source file.>  /Rx /M#

Where source file is the name of the file to be viewed.  The /R parameter
is optional and allows you to specify the starting page number within the
document, i.e., /R2 would instruct ViewFax to begin the view with page 2.
If the /Rx parameter is not used, viewing will begin with page 1.  The /M#
parameter is also optional.  It specifies the graphic adaptor type.  The
default if not specified is for QL II Fax to auto detect.  Other values
are CGA = M6, Hercules = M8, EGA = M15,  VGA = M17.  These values may vary
depending on the manufacturer of your adaptor card.
