3. File Breakup. Many users have software that generates large text files, such as financial reports, which
then need to be broken into smaller units and faxed to different destinations. CompuFax now has a File
Breakup feature that makes this simple to do through embedded file directives.
New File D irectives:
## BRE AKUP See F AX> HE LP FILE _DIRE CTIVE B REAKUP
## NEWFAX See FAX>HELP FILE_DIRECTIVE NEWFAX
## ENDFAX See FAX>HELP FILE_DIRECTIVE ENDFAX
4. Font Selection. With ASCII to FAX conversion you can now select different fonts, either from the
command line, or with embedded file directives. T h is makes CompuFax more flexible and easier to adapt
to your own requirements and preferences.
New Com m and Qu alifier:
/FONT
Format: SEND / FON T=filespec
New E mbedded Command:
## FONT [filename] See FAX>HELP FILE_DIRECTIVE FONT
5. Spacing between ch ar act er s fo r ASCII to FAX con ver sio n can now also be specified.

6. A new program that expands the journal file to an ASCII file that can be easily used by an application
program was ad ded. See F AX> H EL P JNL 2ASCII . A samp le DC L comm and file ASCJNL .CO M was
also added which disp lays the f ields in each r eco rd produced by JNL2ASCII.
7. A new command file FAX$DIR:FAX_MONITOR.COM was added which checks CompuFax every 15
minutes and notifies the designated user via mail when the server is down or when one of the devices is
off line. The command file should be modified to designate the user to send mail to, and for the number
of devices to check. It can also be modified to send reply notifications instead of mail messages.
A.3 Known Problem s
1. The remote server can put a number of NETSERVER.COM files in the SYS$LOGIN directory for the
process which start ed the remote server. T his occurs when th e act u al server has been shut d own.
Solution: Create a copy of this file with a high sequence number.
Example: $ CREATE SYS$LOGIN:NETSERVER.LOG;32765
Since the high est allowable n umber is 32767, a m aximum of t wo more files will b e created b y th e system.
2. FaxBox, Xe r o x 7021 and Xerox 7033 de vices a r e n o longer supported.
