Hi Guys, I want to know how can i send an email to fax message using PHP or how can I send a fax using PHP? I heard that you can do this using Perl and ASP. Thanks. Can you please help me what are the syntax to use and code? Thanks!!!!!

    use exec() to call your fax program of choice. you'll need to have a tiffg3 format file ready to be sent. you can create the tiffg3 file by converting the file to be sent into postscript then into tiffg3 using postscript.

    it takes about 10 secs for the fax to be converted into tiffg3 and about a minute to send a fax so you may want to have an external script that just sends faxes and returns control back to the web page the user sees asap.

    i'm just finishing up a project that sends out a bunch of faxes using php to dynamically create faxes so i know it can be done.

      Hi... Thanks for replying. Can you send me some documentation about how to do those things??? I am a newbie... can you please help me? or can you send me the php program that sends multiple fax using php when you finish it? Thanks a lot again!!!!

                  If you want to send faxes in a real production system, you should use an external tool. According to me, the best tool is FaxCarrier.
                  It has an xml based integration technology like that.

                  <sendfax phone="123123123">
                  <pages>
                  <page template="background.bmp">
                  <annotation text="Hello From FaxCarrier." x=10 y=100 fontsize=12>
                  <annotation text="Sendind Fax is too easy." x=10 y=300 fontsize=10>
                  </page>
                  </pages>
                  </sendfax>

                  Can you prepare an xml like above ?
                  If you can, you send faxes from anywhere including PHP.
