I've recently started playing with the RxFax application on my Asterisk box. I've had success, mostly, but I've had some failures, too... The most recent failure is specific to receiving from a particular fax machine -- a "Canon Laser Class 9000S". The TIF images received are readable, but the aspect ratio is stretched horizonatlly (or squished vertically). Is this a problem anyone else has seen before? Is there a workaround? Thanks, Rob

Try using other viewing software. If they all do the same thing, get back to me. Regards, Steve
Hi Rob, I used RxFax some time ago with success but the last CVS of asterisk crashes when asterisk is going to start receiving data. I'm trying with tiff-3.5.7 spandsp-0.0.1k and last asterisk CVS... What versions do you use? On Fri, 2004-09-10 at 14:09 -0500, Rob Fugina wrote:> I've recently started playing with the RxFax application on my > Asterisk box.
