Drop Directory and the DropFax Service
The FaxPress Premier supports easy deployment of automated, outbound production fax-
ing in almost any environment through the FaxPress Premier Drop Directory feature, al-
lowing faxes to be sent without user intervention
Third-party applications can access the Drop Directory to submit outgoing faxes. Drop Di-
rectory polls the Drop Directory folder for outbound faxes and submits them to the Premier
for faxing. The Drop Directory supports fax jobs submitted in any native document format,
and also supports priority fax job settings controlled by the third party application
FaxPress also supports the development of custom production fax applications, using JA-
VA, VB or C++ programming languages. See Web Services SDK for more information.
Note: For fax broadcasting, production faxing and other kinds of high volume
outbound faxing, using imprint headers may be more practical than cover
pages. See Using the Imprint Header on page 303 for more information.
