Sending a fax
always give the area code, e.g. in the telephone book, without any problems aris- ing during transmission.
Thus it is only necessary to give:
# cat newsletter faxsend -
It must be borne in mind that the text that contains the document codes must come up as ASCII text, even when printing out. If, for example, a font in Win- dows is used which is not in the printer, screen data will be generated for the text from the font descriptions in Windows. An XFAX cannot interpret this. The typefaces which can be used are those which are included in a Microsoft Z1A font cassette and they are indicated in font lists in Windows with a small printer.
The following codes are available:
FAX=telno
Gives the recipient’s fax number. Several fax numbers can be given after one another and should then be separated with
SYMBOL_SET=id
Indicates that the symbol set, id, should be used. For lists of permitted val- ues see the Appendix: Commands - faxsend.
CHAR_SET = id
Indicates that the character set, id, should be used. For lists of permitted values see Appendix: Command reference - faxsend.
TIME=tt:mm
Indicates at what time the transmission of the fax should start.
4.10 The telephone cost file ETCDIR/cost
In order to be able to calculate the approximate costs for the fax transmissions that are made in the system, it is possible to include the actual telephone tariffs in the file ETCDIR/cost. A number of keywords are used in the file as follows:
CHARGE_PER_MINUTE
Indicates that debiting is done per minute and not using marks and mark intervals. This is Telia’s new way of debiting in Sweden.
COST_PER_MARK=kronor
The cost of one mark is given in kronor (Swedish Crowns). Not used today in Sweden. Bear in mind VAT costs.
MINIMUM_CHARGE=price
Gives the minimum debiting. In Sweden 0.29 kronor including VAT (November 1995).
