Creating and managing fax cover sheets
You want to provide outgoing fax messages with a cover page.
You have the possibility of uploading and using up to five cover pages. The cover
pages must be available in RTF format; they may also contain images. Make sure
however that the images are low resolution. Do not use colours when creating the
cover page as fax messages are always transmitted in black and white.
• To upload a cover image, click the
Browse
button.
• To download a cover page from the communication server to your PC, click the
Download
hyperlink.
• To give a cover image a name, enter the name of your choice in the input field of
the second column.
Use the following placeholders to represent specific information.
Exchange access prefix
Lets you specify by selecting a prefix how an external outgoing fax message
should access the exchange:
• Enter the usual exchange access prefix according to the numbering plan
(country-specific default value): The prefix is added to the destination
number and the routing takes place via the
transit route
(in the default setting
this is route 1). The user or user application dials the destination number
without an access prefix and not in canonical format. Example: Prefix “0” is the
default value for most European countries).
• You enter a route prefix: The prefix is added to the destination number and
the routing takes place via the corresponding route. The user or user
application dials the destination number without an access prefix and not in
canonical format. Example: Prefix “173” is the default route selection for
route 4.
• You leave the field blank: No prefix is made to precede the destination
number. The user or user application dials the destination number with an
access prefix or in canonical format. The routing takes place in accordance
with the selected destination number.
Maximum length of the
internal call number
Enter here the maximum length of the internal call number. The fax service will
then handle as external call numbers any destination number that has more
characters than those entered here and, in accordance with the
Prefix for dial-up
access
setting, will prefix them with an exchange access prefix.
A destination number with fewer or just as many digits as those entered here will
be handled as an internal call number: The fax server checks whether a fax DDI
number exists for the destination user. If it does, the fax message is converted
and sent to the internal user with an e-mail. If not, the fax message is put
through as an ordinary call and the user will obtain the fax transmission tones
when he picks up.
