You could read through the file, saving all the lines from the beginning of
a page until you reach the point where you know who the customer is.  Write
the fax number to a new file.  Write the lines you have saved, then just
read and write until you reach a new page.

The new file will contain everything in the old file plus all of the
different fax numbers that you need.

If you don't want to buffer up the lines, you could save the RRN of the
first line of the page in your input file and go back to that point after
inserting the fax number.

Unless the fax program requires a separate file for each customer, there is
no need to do it that way.
