Chapter 3: FaxFinder Client Software Operation
4. The incoming fax arrives in the recipient’s email inbox as a message with an attachment.
The email message is marked as being from the FaxFinder Administrator.
The sender’s “Remote ID” and the recipient’s name appear in the “Subject” line of the email
message. (The Remote ID comes from the sending fax machine and is typically the sender’s fax
number or name.)
5. The fax recipient (a client of the FaxFinder Server) opens the email message. The incoming fax
message takes the form of a graphic file attachment. The FaxFinder Server has assigned the file an
automatic file name.
6. The FaxFinder client can open the file or save the file.
a.
Opening the fax message graphic file
. Incoming fax messages are PDF or TIFF files. These
graphics files are automatically associated with a PDF or TIFF viewer program that has already been
chosen. The client can open the fax email attachment directly in the viewer program.
b.
Saving the fax message graphic file
. In some viewer programs, the client can do a ‘Save As,’
renaming the graphic file attachment with a meaningful name for subsequent viewing or forwarding.
7. The client views the fax message in the (PDF or TIFF) viewer program.
