PlanetPress Fax plugin preferences
PlanetPress Workflow Fax plugin preferences control certain functions of the PlanetPress Fax
service, which in turn has a direct impact on all PlanetPress Workflow Fax output tasks
performed on a given computer. Bear in mind that PlanetPress Workflow Fax output tasks
included in a given PlanetPress Workflow configuration can be performed by a PlanetPress
Fax installation running on a different computer, typically one that runs only PlanetPress Fax
and the faxing application that actually sends the fax. When you change the user options on a
given computer, only that computer is affected. So you should consider changing the
PlanetPress Fax user options on the computer that actually performs the PlanetPress Workflow
Fax output tasks.
The changes you make to the PlanetPress Workflow Fax plugin preferences are stored in the
PlanetPress Fax configuration file. They will be applied when PlanetPress Fax is started.

Dialing format: Select how you want PlanetPress Fax to read the fax number
in the data selection and send it to WinFax PRO. The dialing format you select
here must be identical to the one you set in WinFax PRO; a discrepancy
between the two may result in WinFax PRO dialing incorrect fax numbers.
Select Default to have PlanetPress Fax set the dial prefix, long distance prefix,
area code, and fax number according to the content of the data selection, and
send the result to WinFax PRO. WinFax PRO sets the dial prefix, long
distance, prefix, and area code, and fax number to the ones it receives from
PlanetPress Fax. If any of the values it receives from PlanetPress Fax are
empty, it uses its own default values. For example, if the data selection did not
contain a dialing prefix, WinFax PRO uses its default dialing prefix. Select
