You'd have to have some sort of OCR in there. A fax TIFF file is pure graphic--there's very little text content. (TIFF files in general can have some useful text info, but I think you're looking for the text in the fax, not text that the fax program may or may not store in the TIFF.) -- -Geoff Hutchison Williams Students Online http://wso.williams.edu/ _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ htdig-dev mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/htdig-dev
