    As long as the fax software application can save the file as a bitmap you should be ok… what error are you getting?

    It seems so easy but if you could help me if something. I`m running Vista Ultimate with built in fax and scan. I have DID number in Tokyo and would like to use this for receiving faxes received from fax machines to my email as PDFs. Is this possible. I don`t want to use any external fax machine or modem.
    By the way, AutoMail is not free. It cost 20euro
    Thank you for reply in advance
