6.6.7 Frequent ly Used Files
Frequently used files may be saved in a special format to make sending faxes more efficient. If the file
consists of plain text and there are no special font requirements, you may want to save the file as a plain text
(ASCII) file with a .TXT file extension, since this file does not require any conversion on the client side. Files
that do have font requirements may be saved as PostScript files with a .PS extension. See above under the
heading The Options Screen, subheading File List for more information.
6.7 How to Modify a Coversheet
Four sample Coversheet Configuration files are shipped with the PC Interface software. These are files
CFCOVER1.CFG through CFCOVER4.CFG. To be useful, these files should be modified to reflect your
organization's information. This section assumes that this has not yet been done and that you are the person
who will make the modifications (normally the System Administrator.)
Before you set out modifying these files, you should send yourself some faxes using the original configuration
files to get a feel for the page layouts used. You should also make backup copies of the configuration files.
