Including Epson FX Graphics Files in a Fax
The Intel SatisFAXtion board and the FAX software allow any file that is in
ASCII, DCX, or PCX format to be sent as a fax. The Intel FAXPOP program
also allows a file that is in Epson FX-85 format to be sent as a fax.
FAXPOP does this by converting the file from Epson FX format to DCX format.
The program EP2DCX.EXE (a small, command-line driven program, which is
included with the SatisFAXtion board software) performs this same
conversion. (The EP2DCX program also allows an Epson FX file to be
converted to PCX format.)
Other applications software can use the EP2DCX program to facilitate the
sending of faxes directly from the application. For example, if a word
processor provides output in Epson FX format, the word-processor software
can execute EP2DCX to convert the Epson FX output to DCX format. The
resulting file can then be submitted to CAS and sent through a SatisFAXtion
board or Connection CoProcessor board as a fax.
Note: An Intel fax board must be installed to run EP2DCX;
otherwise, an error is generated.
The following section describes the EP2DCX command line format and
parameters and the errors codes and messages that EP2DCX generates.
