I know, we can write a program that will render a document in say postscript, convert it to tiff, email it to a recipient where if they have the program they can run it through an OCR program that will supply the original text. Of course we will NOT open source it but rather patent the process and begin selling it to windows users. There are bound to be several million out there that would pay for such a neat program. When Microsoft calls and threatens to put us out of business we will cave and sell for a few bucks. Sorry, I feel like a smart ass tonight.

Those are all external services, which the original poster explicitly did not want. They also all have phone lines *somewhere*, so they're not purely internet, which is the other thing he asked for. Faxing requires phone lines. Somewhere.

Re: Internet Faxing...
It's not free, of course, but I use the maxemail service that allows me to send an email and it is faxed to the intended. I can attach PDF files to the email and they are rendered.

Internet Faxing...
Is this possible WITHOUT using an external service? I setup a Fax Server today (WinFax Pro) for me and my wife and I was just wondering if it was possible to transmit faxes thru the Internet. I have it setup on a phone line but was just wondering if it was possible to send/receive thru the net. Currently the box is a WinXP Pro box but would gladly switch it over to Red Hat if there was a program that will allow me to set it up as a Server and send faxes via Win2K and WinXp Pro Clients over the net (via IP) or a phone line - and also receive (of course) :) Thanks! :) Jim Hale --- 'The OS Tells The PC What To Do With Itself" - Me, 1990 --- Visit Our MIDI & Digital Audio Website at http://hale.dyndns.org or Our Forums At http://haleforum.dyndns.org -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
