Re: Fax question..

Works if the spooled files are simple. But most are not - blank lines do
not go along, underlining, highlighting, etc., can be lost.

There are lots of products that can help here. One I know well is RJS
Software's WINSPOOL, etc. They've a number of modules, like, that can
monitor an output queue and download and convert and send on, all
automagically. I think it's <www.rjssoft.com>
