FBSD 4.9
efax-0.9a-001114a7_1.tgz
given the following text file (60 lines long) and the efax command:
$ efix -i text -n fax.%02x.tif -r 204.1x195.6 -p 8.465x11 -l 60 FILE
the following errors occur:
1. if a newline terminates the 60th line, a blank 2nd fax image is
falsely created.
2. if the length of line #1 exceeds 93 characters, a 2nd fax image
is falsely created with some bogus characters (this happens
with NO newline at line 60).
3. it is very bad that a 1 inch margin is automatically created in the image.
it is very bad for faxing related to the legal system where margins
must be exactly correct (or it will not be accepted). if i already
have a 1 inch margin, efix gives me a 2 inch margin. this is a headache.
* thanks for the great software! i love the design! simple! functional!
i hope these problems can be fixed! i REALLY need this program to work
properly :)
