elentz Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I have a script that creates a PDF , I have also figured out how to use PHPMailer to email that PDF as an attachment. Now I want to install a Fax modem in to my Ubuntu machine and Fax that PDF whenever I want. Can this be done? If so How? Thanks alot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amites Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 It can be done, same system many companies use to fire off faxes, though getting into that realm is beyond the scope of programming I will be tinkering with for a while, you might get started with http://www.hylafax.org/content/Main_Page I'm don't think it's written in PHP though you could use it for a roadmap or port something to it, I'd like to know what you come up with on this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elentz Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 I'm just brain storming now about this. What if I had hylafax setup on the server, and told php to use it as a printer. I just read that gfax will let you use Hylafax as a printer. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
