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 pre-
fix, 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 dis-
tance, 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 val-
ues. For example, if the data selection did not contain a dialing prefix, WinFax PRO uses
its default dialing prefix. Select Dial as entered to limit PlanetPress Fax to removing any
spaces or parentheses that appear in the data selection, and sending the result to WinFax
PRO. WinFax PRO dials the result exactly as it receives it from PlanetPress Fax.
Note: WinFax Pro scales fax pages with the following minimum settings:
- Raster width: 1728 dpi
- Raster height: 2158 dpi
- Raster resolution: 196 dpi
