It accepts postscript or g3 format. For text input, it looks like pbmtext (from the netpbm port/package) will convert text files to a suitable format (and then you run pbm2g3, which is inclduded in the mgetty+sendfax pacakge). -- Dan Pelleg ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I think it is the front-end (GUI) of mgetty+sendfax. # cd /usr/ports # make search name=mgetty Port: mgetty-1.1.30.12.16_3 Path: /usr/ports/comms/mgetty+sendfax Index: comms . # make search name=netpbm Port: netpbm-10.17_1 Path: /usr/ports/graphics/netpbm Index: graphics # make search name=pbm2g3 no printout I think I need to install 'mgetty-1.1.30.12.16_3'.
