5.4.1 The VIEW c om m and
The CompuFax VIEW command options are explained in detail in Chapter 6. However, here are some examples:
$ FAX VIEW FAX$REC_DIR:RADA80AD_1_8182485253.T4 / DOWN SCALE= 3 / MODE= 257
The above example displays a received T4 file, scaled down by a factor of 3 (it displays every third dot in the fax file, both vertically and horizontally.) Since there are 1728 dots across the width of a received fax page and about 800 dots across the width of a typical display screen, the / DOWNSCALE= 3 qualifier ensures that the full width of the fax is displayed. The / MODE= 257 causes the graphics image to be displayed, followed by an end of file message.
$ FAX VIEW 3PAGES.T4 / LEFT=
The above command displays the first page of the file 3PAGES.T4. The / LEFT=
The / MODE= 69 does a number of things (69 = 64 + 4 + 1.) In addition to the graphics display (1) of the header line, this command also displays the date and time the fax was received (64) and a message that indicates whether the document is in standard or fine resolution (4).
$ FAX ALPHA> FAX VIEW FAX$DIR:LOGO.T4 / UN IT= IN CH / PAGE= 2 / DOWN SCALE= 2
This command displays the logo file in the FAX$DIR directory. In this case we are skipping 0.2 inch at the top of the page and 1.1 inch on the left of the page and the displayed height is two inches. By scaling the image down by a factor of two, we can see just about the whole logo.
5.4.2 Using CF_REC_TOOLS.COM
The CF_REC_TOOLS.COM command file has been created to simplify the processing of received faxes. As shipped, this command file displays a list of file names from which you can make a selection. A portion of the selected file then displays and you can then decide to view more of the fax, or one of the following:
Copy the fax to somewhere else,
Delete the fax,
Forward it to another fax number,
Ignore it (do nothing further with it),
Print the fax,
Quit the command file,
Route (rename) it,
Stats (see information about it),
View it again from the beginning.
Being a command file, CF_REC_TOOLS.COM can easily be modified to adapt it to your site's requirements.
