I think the file has to be a postscript file.
The easy way to use kdeprintfax is to open whatever file you want to fax in an 
editor or word processor and then press the 'Print' button.  When the printer 
dialogue box appears use the drop down menu in the printer selection to 
select "Print to fax"
You will then enter kdeprintfax.

There is a tip on my web site about using faxes from OpenOffice which may help 
you.
