1241.0. "Fax Group-3 Modem, Software available?" by SUOSW3::GRAMMER () Mon Feb 10 1992 10:18

Software for "Fax Group 3" Modems
for	- send and
	- receive
wanted.

I look for a software, that 
1. converts e. g.
	- ASCII text files,
	- images (bitmap/pixel files, GEM)
	- 1stWordPlus documents including images
  into
	Fax Group 3  Format, and 
  sends this to a Fax-Modem connected to serial COM.

2. receives incoming Faxes, presents them on screen (convert Fax Format
to image), and optionally prints them.


I'm aware of a program "ST-Fax" of a company TKR, Kiel. But it is unsure if 
this works with their hardware only or with "all" Fax-Modems.
Ordering ST-Fax just for fun would be too expensive.

I've an IBISLINK 9624VAP, Modem and Fax-Modem.
Any help is appreciated.

Does this fax stuff need a special modem, or with the right software, 
can any modem send/receive a fax.

It needs a special modem.
1241.4STRAIGHT FAXPOWDML::STEILSat Oct 03 1992 16:0210
    I just ordered a copy of STRAIGHT FAX, a new product from some
    small software company in Pennsylvania, USA. It has drivers for
    Calamus, ASCII, .img files, etc.
    
    I'll report on it once I try it with my SUPRA 9600 baud fax modem.
    
    I'll dig out the address and phone number is anyone's interested.
