we use a PHP web page, that takes a few formats, PDF being the most common, anc convert it to TIFF. If conversion succeeds we allow to download the TIFF file as a preview. Then the user confirms and the PHP places a .call file in asterisk spool

    I provide tech support to my parents on all their computers. The amount of 
annoyance I
    have dealt with in the last few months over the fact that a recipe program 
and various
    card making programs designed for Windows 3.1/95 won't run on my mom's 
Windows 7 64 bit
    computer tells me you are not as right as you think you are.


This is not a question of settings. You must decide yourself what to do and there are various options. Asterisk is only responsible for the transport.

You need to look at the following tasks:
- get the file or files into the asterisk box
- convert to a faxable tiff format
- generate a call file and put the tiff file where it belongs (but there are 
other methods)
- get fax report

Of course, at first you must configure Asterisk to accept facsimiles, which depends on which technologies you need. But everything is nicely documented.
