Hi,
A friend of mine need to send documents by fax
using kdeprintfax (trying to forget windoze;-)

Is there a way to send an openoffice document
with it?
do i Have to suggest to add a filter? something like "soffice/* soffice -tp %out %in"
or similar?


Thanks Angelo


There is procedure in the openoffice help files. Basically it's:

Setting up Efax as a fax printer in OpenOffice...

Run /usr/lib/openoffice/spadmin as root. # or the dir where you have installed
Select add new printer
Select fax printer
Set command to: fax send (PHONE) (TMP)
Save and exit.


Now when you want to fax you can select your new fax printer from the list of available printers in OpenOffice. A dialogue will pop up asking you for the phone number. The only problem with this approach is that you don't get any feedback about errors. You can try "fax send -v (PHONE) (TMP)" in that case.
